Hi group,

This may be a dumb question but I will ask anyway. :)

If a requirement/task/question uses the term "advertise", as in
advertise the loopback into area x, for example. Does "advertise" in
this case mean use any means necessary to get the address/prefix into
the protocol (network statement, redistribute, etc)? Obviously if there
are restrictions in the lab, it limits the scope. I was just wondering
if there is a right or wrong interpretation of this term when there are
no restrictions. I interpret it as bring the prefix into the routing
protocol. Maybe this is a proctor question if it comes up?

Jason
