You have a stub OSPF area running in your network. Your supervisor has asked you to
build a virtual link across this area to connect new equipment acquired in a recent ISP
acquisition. Which statement is correct about this scenario?
A.
Type 5 LSAs would be blocked in a stub area.
B.
Type 5 LSAs would carry external information across your transit area to the backbone.
C.
Type 5 LSAs would be seen only in the newly attached area.
D.
Type 5 LSAs would be converted to type 7 LSAs.
D would make more sense.
Virtual Link idea goes with NSSA area.
External router, aka Type 5 LSA would be carried into the NSSA area as Type 7 LSA. Once in the area 0 converted back into LSA Type 5.
Alessandro, we are not talking about NSSA area. the question asks about stub area. the answer shown is correct
