66. Which of the following fields is not found in a BGP common header?

A. Marker
B. Length
C. Version=
D. Type

The Version field is not found in a BGP common header. If the common header specifies this to be a BGP OPEN message, then the
Version field will be found in the message but not in the BGP common header.

67. Which of the following is not a BGP message type?

B. UPDATE
C. NOTIFICATION
D. KEEPALIVE
E. WAIT =

There is no WAIT message type. The OPEN message type is used to establish a connection between BGP peers. The NOTIFICATION
message type is used to advertise errors. The UPDATE message type is used to advertise topology updates and changes, and the KEEPALIVE
