The result is that OSPF is not using the FA address  in this case even it is set

this is  what i meant :)


 R1 and R6 are ASBR

Well, you are mixing in two things here :-). The thread was originally about 
the non-NSSA area. That's what I was answering about.

In a case of the NSSA area, behavior is slightly different. NSSA ASBR will set 
FA as the IP field to one of its own IP addresses advertised in OSPF 
(preference given to Loopback). When the translating ABR creates Type 5 LSA, 
this information will be preserved, allowing fo the optimal routing to the ASBR.

I mean in scenario where we have 2 Exits to O E1/E2 routes , OSPF will choose 
to Replace the Advertising Router Attribute to the highest Router-id Value 
between Both . in that case OSPF will route toward the one that is matched 
inside the Advertising router value, this can cause sometimes sub-optimal 
routing issue.
If the Forwarding Address value is set than OSPF will route toward the Fa 
address field regardless of the one who did the T 7/5 Translation ensuring 
Optimal path selection.

what if this same route has been advertised but now with the Advertising router 
field set and the Fa field Set. and there is no Type 7/5 Translation since we 
Satisfied the below conditions for setting the FA to non-zero. the question is 
what will OSPF choose as a next hope to get this route installated in the RIB?

What would OSPF use as next-hop where?

Yes it is :-)

On an ASBR that redistributes the route:

1) next-hop must be known by OSPF (enabled on the interface, or a more specific 
OSPF route to it)
2) exit interface for the next-hop must not be passive
3) exit interface must be broadcast or non-broadcast

If those are satisfied, redistributed route will have non-zero FA and FA will 
be the next-hop of the redistributed route.
