3-6: Multiarea OSPF Flashcards

1
Q

A network administrator is verifying a multi-area OSPF configuration by checking the routing table on a router in area 1. The administrator notices a route to a network that is connected to a router in area 2. Which code appears in front of this route in the routing table within area 1?

Q

The network administrator has been asked to summarize the routes for a new OSPF area. The networks to be summarized are 172.16.8.0, 172.16.10.0, and 172.16.12.0 with subnet masks of 255.255.255.0 for each network. Which command should the administrator use to forward the summary route for area 15 into area 0?

A

area 15 range 172.16.8.0 255.255.248.0

14
Q

Which characteristic describes both ABRs and ASBRs that are implemented in a multiarea OSPF network?

A

17
Q

A network administrator is implementing OSPF in a portion of the network and must ensure that only specific routes are advertised via OSPF. Which network statement would configure the OSPF process for networks 192.168.4.0, 192.168.5.0, 192.168.6.0, and 192.168.7.0, now located in the backbone area, and inject them into the OSPF domain?

A

r1(config-router)# network 192.168.4.0 0.0.3.255 area 0

18
Q

What type of router is a router with all of its interfaces in the same area?

A

Internal Router

20
Q

An ABR in a multiarea OSPF network receives LSAs from its neighbor that identify the neighbor as an ASBR with learned external networks from the Internet. Which LSA type would the ABR send to other areas to identify the ASBR, so that internal traffic that is destined for the Internet will be sent through the ASBR?

A

LSA type 4

21
Q

What type of router is a router with its interfaces attached to multiple areas?

A

Area Border Router

23
Q
