Answers:

1. "D". Ethernet segments will be OSPF broadcast networks by default.

 

2. The default OSPF cost for a 56k serial link is 1785.

 

3. "E". You need to use the ip ospf priority 0 command on the spoke router Serial interfaces. This will disqualify the spokes from the DR/BDR election on the frame relay segment.

 

4. The default OSPF cost for an interface running at T1 speed is 64.

 

5. That cost for an Ethernet interface is 10.

 

6. "A, D". OSPF considers a point-to-multipoint network to be a collection of point-to-point links, and as with point-to-point networks, there is no DR / BDR election.

 

7. "B".
