Which of the following routing technologies uses an attribute list for path selection?

The correct answer is A. BGP. BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) uses a series of path attributes (such as AS path, local preference, MED, etc.) to determine the best path for routing decisions. This attribute-based decision-making makes BGP distinct from protocols like: - RIP, which uses hop count. - EIGRP…

Explanation

BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) uses a series of path attributes (such as AS path, local preference, MED, etc.) to determine the best path for routing decisions. This attribute-based decision-making makes BGP distinct from protocols like: - RIP, which uses hop count. - EIGRP, which uses a composite metric based on bandwidth and delay. - OSPF, which uses cost based on link speed.
