Exam 4A0-113 Topic 5 Question 94 Discussion

Detailed analysis:
IS-IS has 3 prefixes learned:
192.168.1.0/24
192.168.2.0/24
192.168.4.0/24
Redistribution policy applied: "isis-ospf" (defined under export statement in OSPF).
Prefix Lists involved:
"redis-16":
prefix 192.168.0.0/16 longer
# matches all 192.168.x.x subnets.
"no-redis":
prefix 192.168.2.0/24 exact
# specifically denies redistribution of 192.168.2.0/24.
Policy logic:
Entry 10: If prefix matches "redis-16" # accept.
Entry 20: If prefix matches "no-redis" # reject.
Order of policy entries is important - router evaluates entry 10 first:
In Nokia SR OS:
Entry 10 will accept all 192.168.x.x prefixes first.
Entry 20 will never be evaluated because prefix 192.168.2.0/24 is already accepted by entry 10 due to the
"longer" match of 192.168.0.0/16.
-
Result:
All 3 prefixes (192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24, 192.168.4.0/24) will be accepted and redistributed.
R2 will generate 3 OSPF Type 5 LSAs for these prefixes.
R1 will receive all 3 Type 5 LSAs.
-
Thus, correct answer: D (3)
