This chapter covers the following official CCNA 200-301 exam topic:
Configure, verify, and troubleshoot single area OSPFv2 for IPv4
This chapter ensures that you understand OSPFv2 for the CCNA 200-301 exam from Cisco Systems. It is wonderful to see Cisco Systems finally bidding farewell to RIP when it comes to dynamic routing protocol coverage in the CCNA exam.

Router ID
Designated router (DR)

Point-to-point network type
Broadcast network type
Point-to-multipoint network type
