Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Link state routing uses ____ algorithm.
A
Quick Sort Algorithm
B
Floyd Warshall Algorithm
C
Bellman Ford
D
Dijkstra’s
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Link state routing algorithm is also known as Dijkstra’s algorithm which is used to find the shortest path from one node to every other node in the network.

Detailed explanation-2: -All link-state routing protocols apply Dijkstra’s algorithm to calculate the best path route. The algorithm is commonly referred to as the shortest path first (SPF) algorithm. This algorithm uses accumulated costs along each path, from source to destination, to determine the total cost of a route.

Detailed explanation-3: -Dijkstra’s algorithm, also known as the Link state routing algorithm, finds the shortest path from one node to all other nodes in the network.

Detailed explanation-4: -Dijkstra’s algorithm finds the shortest path between two nodes by building a shortest-path tree, and stopping once the destination node has been reached. Normally in routing applications, Dijkstra’s algorithm is used to find the shortest route between 2 locations.
