At the moment the task is required we don't have the External routes for the
161.1.XX.0/24, but finally we will have something like:

E2 150.1.4.0/24
E2 150.1.5.0/24
E2 150.1.8.0/24
O IA 161.1.45.0/24
E2 161.1.67.0/24 (redistributed from other protocol)
E2 161.1.23.0/24 (redistributed from other protocol)

Let see what type of ospf route the 161.1/16 is in the FIB.
