Exam FCSS_EFW_AD-7.6 Topic 3 Question 75 Discussion

Actual exam question for Fortinet's FCSS_EFW_AD-7.6 exam
Question #: 75
Topic #: 3
Refer to the exhibit, which contains the partial output of an OSPF command.

An administrator is checking the OSPF status of a FortiGate device and receives the output shown in the exhibit.
What two conclusions can the administrator draw? (Choose two.)

Suggested Answer: B,C Vote an answer

The output of the get router info ospf status command provides key information about the OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) configuration on the FortiGate device.
The FortiGate device is connected to multiple areas
The output states: "This router is an ABR"
ABR (Area Border Router) means the device is connected to multiple OSPF areas and maintains routing information between them.
This confirms that the FortiGate is not just in one area, but at least one backbone area (Area 0) and another OSPF area.
The FortiGate device injects external routing information
The output states: "Supports opaque LSA"
Opaque LSAs (Type 9, 10, and 11) are used in OSPF extensions, including those that support external route injection.
Typically, ABRs or ASBRs (Autonomous System Boundary Routers) inject external routes, allowing routes from other routing protocols (such as BGP or static routes) to be advertised into OSPF.

“This router is an ABR” confirms that the FortiGate is connected to multiple OSPF areas. Also, RFC1583Compatibility flag is enabled is associated with OSPF ECMP for external routes of equal cost. “Supports opaque LSA” does not prove that the FortiGate injects external routes.
