Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

OSPF uses a topological database, also known as a Link-State Database (LSDB), to hold the common view of the network formed from the link-state advertisements (LSAs) received from other routers in the network. This database is used to calculate the shortest path tree and determine the best path for routing packets to destinations. Adjacencies and designated routers are concepts within the OSPF protocol, but they do not specifically relate to the database used to hold the link-state information.
