Dell EMC Associate – Midrange Storage — Question 29

On Switch A, a static route has been redistributed into OSPF. Which type of OSPF router will this process make Switch A?

Answer options

• A. Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR)
• B. Designated router (DR)
• C. Area Border Router (ABR)
• D. Backbone Router (BR)

Correct answer: A

Explanation

When a static route is redistributed into OSPF, the router becomes an Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR) because it is introducing routes from outside the OSPF domain. The other options, such as Designated Router (DR) and Area Border Router (ABR), refer to different roles that do not involve the redistribution of external routes.
