R5 learns it through R4's LSA, no doubt!

I think it's A, but I'm not 100% convinced.

Wait, are we sure about that? Seems too straightforward.

Totally agree, it's definitely C!

R4 sends its prefix with a Router LSA.

I feel like the answer has to be related to R4 directly, but I'm torn between the Router LSA and the Inter-Area Prefix LSA options.

I practiced a similar question where R5 learned from an LSA, but I can't remember if it was a Router LSA or an Inter-Area one.

I remember something about Inter-Area Prefix LSAs, but I can't recall if R1 or R4 would originate it for R5 to learn about R4's prefix.

I think R5 learns R4's prefix through a Router LSA from R4, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the right choice.

I'm confident that the correct answer is C. R4 will originate a Router LSA to advertise its system prefix, and R5 will learn about it that way.

Okay, let's think this through step-by-step. R4 is advertising its system prefix into Area 0, so R5 should learn about it through an Inter-Area Prefix LSA originated by R1.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know OSPF has different LSA types, but I'm not 100% sure which one would be used to advertise the IPv6 system prefix from R4 to R5.

This seems like a pretty straightforward OSPF question. I'll need to think through the LSA types and how they're propagated in the OSPF domain.

B) With a Router LSA originated by R5? More like, 'With a Router LSA originated by R5, and then immediately discarded.'
CO

That's right, it needs to come from R4 directly.
GE

Yeah, R5 won't learn it with a Router LSA originated by R5.
NA

R5 will learn R4's IPv6 system prefix with a Router LSA originated by R4.

Hmm, this question is router-heavy. I guess it's time for me to brush up on my OSPF knowledge before the exam.

Willard: I'll make sure to focus on how routers advertise their prefixes in OSPFv3.
WI

Definitely, OSPF is important to understand for networking exams.
OR

Yeah, OSPF can be tricky. Good idea to review before the exam.

D) With an Inter-Area Prefix LSA originated by R1. Inter-Area Prefix LSAs are used to advertise prefixes between areas.
WE
Wei

Actually, the correct answer is D) With an Inter-Area Prefix LSA originated by R1.
LE

I'm not sure, but I think it might be E) With an Inter-Area Prefix LSA originated by R5.
CA
Carry

No, I believe it is F) With an Inter-Area Prefix LSA originated by R4.
CA
Cary

I think the answer is C) With a Router LSA originated by R4.
IR
Irma

But R5 learns R4's IPv6 system prefix with a Router LSA originated by R4, not R5.
SH
Sheridan

I disagree, I believe it's E.
IR
Irma
2 years ago
I think the answer is C.
SH

C) With a Router LSA originated by R4. That's the only way R5 can learn R4's system prefix, since R4 is in a different area.
IV
Ivette

R4 advertises its system prefix into Area 0.
EL
Elli

R5 learns R4's system prefix from the Router LSA originated by R4.
CH
Chi

R5 receives the Router LSA from R4.
DE

R1 originates the Router LSA for R4's system prefix.
