B Correct answer
Explanation

OSPF allows a hierarchical configuration of areas to make large networks more manageable. Routers within the same area have the same topology database and exchange updates with only the routers within the same area. This reduces the size of the routing tables and the influence of a change in one area has on the entire network.
