H12-831_V1.0 Exam Dumps : HCIP-Datacom-Advanced Routing & Switching Technology V1.0

Step 1: Understanding OSPF Areas and Summarization

Area 1 (NSSA - Not So Stubby Area)

Allows external routes but converts Type-5 LSAs into Type-7 LSAs.

External routes must be translated by an ABR into Type-5 LSAs before being propagated into other areas.

Area 2 (Common Area - Regular OSPF Area)

Supports both inter-area and external routes.

asbr-summary 10.0.4.0 255.255.255.0 Command

This command summarizes all external routes within 10.0.4.0/24 into a single summarized route.

Since it is applied on R1 and R3, these routers will advertise 10.0.4.0/24 instead of 10.0.4.4/32 to their respective areas.

Step 2: Route Distribution Analysis

R4 (Originating Router in NSSA - Area 1)

R4 injects 10.0.4.4/32 as a Type-7 LSA into Area 1.

R1 (ABR between Area 1 & Area 0, Summarizing Route)

Since R1 is an ABR, it translates Type-7 LSAs from Area 1 into a summarized Type-5 LSA (10.0.4.0/24) for Area 0.

✅ R1 has 10.0.4.0/24 in its routing table.

R2 (Inside Backbone Area 0, No ASBR Summary Applied Here)

R2 only receives Type-5 LSAs from R1 but does not summarize them.

Since R2 is not explicitly summarizing, it will likely still see 10.0.4.4/32 rather than 10.0.4.0/24.

❌ R2 does not have 10.0.4.0/24.

R3 (ABR between Area 0 & Area 2, Summarizing Route)

R3 is also an ABR and has the asbr-summary 10.0.4.0/24 command configured.

It will advertise the summarized route 10.0.4.0/24 into Area 2.

✅ R3 has 10.0.4.0/24 in its routing table.

R5 (Inside Area 2, No Direct Connectivity to External Routes)

Since R3 summarizes 10.0.4.0/24, R5 (inside Area 2) will receive only summarized routes.

✅ R5 has 10.0.4.0/24.

Final Answer: ✅ R1, R3 (Option A, C)

OSPF NSSA and Type-7 to Type-5 LSA Translation

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

1. Understanding the Network Topology

R1 and R2 are OSPF-enabled routers connected via the 10.0.12.0/24 subnet (Area 0).

PC1 (192.168.1.2/30) is connected to R1 via GE0/0/1.

PC2 (192.168.1.22/30) is connected to R2 via GE0/0/1.

OSPF ensures that R1 and R2 know about each other's directly connected networks.

2. Analyzing Connectivity

Can R1 ping 192.168.1.22 (PC2)?

Yes, if routing is properly configured.

OSPF ensures that R1 learns about 192.168.1.22 from R2.

Since R1 has a route to 192.168.1.22 via R2, it can ping PC2 successfully.

✅ Option A is correct.

Can R1 ping 192.168.1.21 (R2's interface)?

Yes, since R1 and R2 are OSPF neighbors.

R1 learns 192.168.1.21 via OSPF and can reach it directly.

✅ Option B is correct.

Can R2 ping 192.168.1.2 (PC1)?

Yes, since OSPF ensures that R2 learns about 192.168.1.2 from R1.

Since R2 has a route to 192.168.1.2 via R1, it can ping PC1 successfully.

✅ Option C is correct.

Can PC1 and PC2 ping each other?

Yes, if default gateways and routing are configured correctly.

If R1 and R2 can ping each other and forward packets, PC1 and PC2 should be able to communicate.

❌ Option D is incorrect because PC1 and PC2 should be able to ping each other.

Final Answer:

✅ A, B, and C are correct.

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

Understanding the OSPF Network Structure in the Question:

OSPF Areas & Routers:

Area 3: Contains R5 (which has loopback 10.0.5.5/32).

Area 1: Contains R6.

Area 2: Contains R4.

Area 0 (Backbone Area): Contains R1, R2, and R3 (which interconnect the other areas).

ACL 2000 Filtering Rule:

The ACL rule 2000 explicitly denies 10.0.5.5/32 from being imported.

The filter 2000 import command applies this filter to Area 0, preventing routes from Area 3 (including R5's loopback) from being learned by Area 0 routers (R1, R2, and R3).

Route Distribution Analysis:

R5 (Area 3):

R5 has 10.0.5.5/32 configured on its Loopback0.

Since OSPF is enabled, R5 advertises the route to R6 in Area 1.

R6 (Area 1) → R2 (Area 0, Backbone Router):

Without filtering, R6 would normally propagate 10.0.5.5/32 to R2 (since R2 is a backbone router in Area 0).

However, since ACL 2000 is applied in Area 0, R2 blocks this route from being imported.

Therefore, R2 does not learn 10.0.5.5/32.

R2 → R1 and R3 (Both in Area 0):

R2 would typically share any learned routes with R1 and R3 in Area 0.

But since R2 itself does not have 10.0.5.5/32, neither R1 nor R3 can receive it.

Thus, R1 and R3 also do not have 10.0.5.5/32 in their routing tables.

R4 (Area 2) is Unaffected:

Since R4 is in Area 2, it is not directly impacted by the filter applied in Area 0.

It can still receive the route via another path if redistribution is configured properly.

Final Conclusion:

R1, R2, and R3 do not have the 10.0.5.5/32 route due to the filter 2000 import command applied in Area 0.

R4 may still have the route since it is not affected by the filtering in Area 0.

Thus, the correct answer is:✅ R1, R3, R2 do not have the route 10.0.5.5/32 in their routing tables.
