A.
Redistributed routes will have an external type of 1 and a metric of 1.

B.
Redistributed routes will have an external type of 2 and a metric of 20.

C.
Redistributed routes will maintain their original OSPF routing metric.

D.
Redistributed routes will have a default metric of 0 and will be treated as reachable and
advertised.

E.
Redistributed routes will have a default metric of 0 but will be treated as unreachable and
not advertised.

Explanation:
By default, all routes redistributed into OSPF willbe tagged as external type 2 (E2) with a
metric of 20, except for BGP routes (with a metric of 1).
Note: The cost of a type 2 route is always the external cost, irrespective of the interior cost
to reach that route. A type 1 cost is the addition of the external cost and the internal cost
used to reach that route.
