4A0-113 Exam Dumps : Nokia OSPF Routing Protocol Exam

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

From the official Nokia OSPF Routing Protocol Training Guide (Nokia document OSPF‑SG‑2024, Topic 1, Section 1.2 Static Routing Scenarios):

“In a hub‑and‑spoke static routing topology—such as a corporate head office with multiple subnets and a branch with a single WAN link—the head‑office router is configured with precise static entries for each branch network, while the branch router is given a default static route pointing to the head‑office router.”

This topology matches the described scenario:

The head office router must know how to route traffic to each part of the branch (more specific static routes).

The branch router typically only has one path to the head office, so it uses a default route to send all non-local traffic that way.

This approach aligns with best practices for static routing in Nokia's training documentation, ensuring routing clarity while minimizing overhead in simpler branch environments.

Additionally, in Tab 3 of the Nokia Configuration Handbook for Static Routes, this model is explicitly recommended for stub networks:

“Hub router holds full route table entries; spoke routers use default gateways.”

Analysis of the Exhibit:

The two routers are exchanging OSPF Hello packets.

Both Hello packets contain:

Same Hello and Dead Intervals.

Same Options field.

Same Router Priority.

Same subnet mask.

Authentication: Null.

BUT — The key issue is:

The Area ID is different:

Left router: Area ID 0.0.0.0

Right router: Area ID 0.0.1.1

OSPF Neighbor Formation Rule:

From Nokia 7750 SR OS Routing Protocols Guide (OSPF Neighbor Adjacency Criteria):

“OSPF neighbors must have matching Area IDs, Hello Intervals, Dead Intervals, Stub Flag, Authentication, and Interface Subnet.”

Since the Area IDs are mismatched, adjacency will not form.

—

Thus, correct answer:

B. The adjacency is down.

—

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

OSPF adjacency formation fails when Area IDs do not match. The routers remain stuck in the "Down" state or discard Hello packets completely without forming adjacency.

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

According toNokia 7750 SR OS OSPF Guide — OSPF Packet Transmission Section:

“OSPF is encapsulated directly over IP using protocol number 89. It does not use TCP or UDP.”

TCP (Protocol 6) → Incorrect.

UDP (Protocol 17) → Incorrect.

OSPF operates directly at IP layer using protocol number 89.

Thus, the correct answer isD.
