Summary:
1. Determine which router became the DR
2. Elect "Tie" as the DR moving forward
Knowledge:
1. The only way to change the DR or BDR is to reload or re-start the ospf process because DR or BDR do not preempt
2. In general determining DR or BDR is not extremely critical, but in a non-broadcase multi-access network (cloud), it's important to keep the hub as DR the entire time and set the spoke routers' priority to 0
3. point to point connection doesn't elect DR and BDR
1. Determine which router became the DR
