What will happen if the link between RTA and RTE fails?
A.
Area 1 will be split into two between RTB-RTF-RTE and RTG-RTA, so these separate areas
will not be able to communicate with each other.
B.
Area 1 will be split into two between RTB-RTF-RTE and RTG-RTA, and to avoid
communication issues a virtual link between RTA and RTB needs to be configured.
C.
Area 1 will be split into two between RTB-RTF-RTE and RTG-RTA, and duplicate LSAs from
Area 1 will flood OSPF Area 0.
D.
Area 1 will be split into two between RTB-RTF-RTE and RTG-RTA, and OSPF will work just
fine.
Explanation:
As RTE will no longer have a direct connection to RTA Area 1 will be split into two groups. Routers
RTA & RTG in one group and Routers RTB, RTE, & RTF in the other group. For router RTE to
access RTA it will now need to traverse Area 0.
