Yes, 216 is the hardest one of the tests I took. If you want a resource for
a more inclusive look at OSPF just for your own info....
http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/ospf-charter.html
Just for further clarification, I'm currently working on my CCNA and the
amount of info needed on routing protocols, compared to what Microsoft asks
for, is my frame of reference in answering your question. That is why I
said general info on RIP and OSPF.
Know the operating characteristics of each version of RIP, and OSPF, know
where you would use them and why, and main features such as split-horizon,
poison-reverse, etc.... I doubt very much you would get into anything such
as packet size, # and size of fields in packets, etc... The specifics of
routing protocols.
