1. What method does NT use for supporting Dynamic routing?     
a.   OSPF     
b.   RIP  *

2. The Usage of which method will result in a low Broadcast Traffic

1.  NT can be used as a _____ router.  D.
    A.  static
    B.  state of the art
    C.  dynamic
    D.  A & C
2.  What is brouter?
   A:  Short for bridge router, and pronounced brau-ter, a device that functions as both a router and a bridge. A
        brouter understands how to route specific types of packets, such as TCP/IP packets. Any other packets it
        receives are simply forwarded to other network(s) connected to the device (this is the bridge function).
