Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) — Question 23

A small remote office is set to connect to the regional hub site via NSSA ASBR.
Which type of LSA is sent to the remote office OSPF area?

Answer options

• A. type 7 LSA
• B. type 1 LSA
• C. type 5 LSA
• D. type 3 LSA

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, type 7 LSA, which is specifically used in NSSA to carry external routes into the OSPF area. Type 1 LSA is for OSPF internal routers, type 5 LSA is for external routes in a standard area, and type 3 LSA is used to summarize routes between areas, making them unsuitable for this scenario.
