  1. Rigpa says:

    Its a tricky questions because this is indeed an LSA type 2 however this was some something that the option field told us.

    As per the following link:

    http://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos14.1/topics/reference/command-summary/show-ospf-database.html

    “Opt : Optional OSPF capabilities associated with the LSA.
    All levels

    We can see outputs with different LSAs using same option:

    “Router *10.255.71.242 10.255.71.242 0x80000002 260 0x20 0x11b1 48
    bits 0x3, link count 2
    id 10.255.70.103, data 12.1.1.2, Type PointToPoint (1)
    TOS count 0, TOS 0 metric 1
    id 12.1.1.0, data 255.255.255.0, Type Stub (3)
    TOS count 0, TOS 0 metric 1
    Summary *23.1.1.0 10.255.71.242 0x80000002 218 0x20 0x6d72 28
    mask 255.255.255.0
    TOS 0x0, metric 1”

    Option D is correct, LSAs type 2 or network are generated by the DR only and since we don’t see any asterisk next to the “Adv Rtr” this tell us that the DR is 192.168.20.1

    Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
