Replication Schedule

i have question regarding active directory replication - intra-site replication. textbook seems unclear subject, , confused on couple of points. consider following facts moac textbook provides: - kcc updates replication topology every 15 minutes - "rule of 3" means there should no more 3 'network hops' away originating domain controller - except change marked urgent, domain controller hold onto change 5 minutes before sending off other domain controllers. otherwise, change sent immediately. now. book says following. "domain controllers notify each other when changes need replicated. each domain controller hold change 5 minutes before forwarding it. since maximum number of hops between domain controllers three, maximum replication latency changes reach final destination 15 minutes. when change marked urgent, replication triggered immediately, bypassing 15-minute default. " (bold sections mark parts confuse me) the reason confuses me because un
