Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D. totally NSSA 🗳️
Explanation -
We need to redistribute RIP from R1 to Area 1 so Area 3 cannot be a stub or totally stubby area. To minimize the propagation of LSAs into and out of Area 1 we should configure it as a totally NSSA. Notice that a NSSA allows LSA Type 3 & 7 while a Totally NSSA only allows LSA Type 7
Note:
Both Totally Stubby Area & Totally Stubby NSSA do not accept external AS routes or inter- area routes (LSA Types 3, 4 and 5). They recognize only intra-area routes and the default route 0.0.0.0. The main difference between them is Totally Stubby NSSA accepts routes from other AS while Totally Stubby Area does not.
Below summarizes the LSA Types allowed and not allowed in area types:
