It's D, nothing is done since it's considered old.

I practiced a similar question, and I think it’s about not changing the database if the sequence number is the same. So, option D sounds right to me.

I’m a bit confused, but I feel like if the info is the same, it shouldn’t overwrite anything. So maybe it’s option A?

I remember something about OSPF not updating the database if the information is identical. Could it be option C, where it sends an acknowledgment?

I think the router should just ignore the update since the sequence number and age are the same. Maybe it’s option D?
