Split Horizon is EIGRP’s loop prevention mechanism. Distance Vector protocols also use Split Horizon for loop prevention. If you’re going to use OSPF, make sure that your hubs are the DR and BDR. If you only have one hub, make it the DR, and don’t configure a BDR.The key point here is that the spokes should never be elected as DR or BDR. You can enforce this with ip ospf priority 0. https://networkdirection.net/articles/routingandswitching/dmvpn/dmvpn-and-dynamic-routing/

Selected Answer: D
split-horizon route advertisement is a method of preventing routing loops in distance-vector routing protocols. OSPF is a link-state protocol. The priorities on the spokes will need to be adapted to avoid suboptimal routing paths
