Explanation

The output of the get router info ospf status command provides key information about the OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) configuration on the FortiGate device. The FortiGate device is connected to multiple areas The output states: "This router is an ABR" ABR (Area Border Router) means the device is connected to multiple OSPF areas and maintains routing information between them. This confirms that the FortiGate is not just in one area, but at least one backbone area (Area 0) and another OSPF area. The FortiGate device injects external routing information The output states: "Supports opaque LSA" Opaque LSAs (Type 9, 10, and 11) are used in OSPF extensions, including those that support external route injection. Typically, ABRs or ASBRs (Autonomous System Boundary Routers) inject external routes, allowing routes from other routing protocols (such as BGP or static routes) to be advertised into
