Which feature must be part of the network design to wait a predetermined amount of time before notifying the routing protocol of a change in the path in the network?
C (SPF hold time): Controls the minimum amount of time between Shortest Path First (SPF) recalculations in link-state protocols like OSPF and IS-IS. This mechanism prevents frequent SPF runs due to rapid or transient topology changes, providing stability.
Other options explained:
A: Transmit delay affects LSA propagation but not routing protocol recalculation timing.
B: Throttle timers are related but primarily control LSA generation intervals.
D: Interface dampening suppresses flapping i
