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.

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

Step 1: Identify the Primary Path

The shortest OSPF cost to 10.0.3.3/32 from R1 is through R5:

R1 → R5 (Cost 10) → R3 (Cost 10) = Total Cost 20

The primary outbound interface from R1 to R5 is GE0/0/1.

Step 2: Identify the Backup Path (OSPF IP FRR & ECMP)

OSPF IP Fast Reroute (FRR) provides a backup next-hop in case the primary link (R1 → R5) fails.

A feasible backup path must have a cost equal to or close to the primary path, but it must avoid the same failure point.

Alternative Path Calculation:

Path 1 (R1 → R2 → R3)

R1 → R2 (Cost 10), R2 → R3 (Cost 10) → Total Cost = 20 ✅

Uses interface GE0/0/2 on R1.

Path 2 (R1 → R4 → R3)

R1 → R4 (Cost 10), R4 → R3 (Cost 10) → Total Cost = 20 ✅

Uses interface GE0/0/3 on R1.

Final Decision on the Backup Interface

Since both paths R1 → R2 → R3 and R1 → R4 → R3 have equal costs, either can be used for backup.

However, R1 → R2 → R3 shares a direct cost path with R5, meaning it may not be preferred as a full FRR backup.

The best backup outbound interface in this scenario is GE0/0/3 (R1 → R4 → R3).

Final Answer: ✅ C (GE0/0/3)
