I recognized it from a test (I'd rather not say which one- "even the
paranoid have enemies")

I think it is indeed a violation of the NDA to discuss actual test
questions. I suggest we ignore questions that appear to come from an actual
test. If the poster doesn't say which practice test the question comes
from, then don't answer it.
Also, for a question that can easily be answered by typing a few characters
in exec mode, it would be best to teach the person how to get the answer
rather than just give them the answer, especially since there are router
simulators out there.
On a tangent, if the test really expects one to memorize what happens when
you type a typo, that's pretty silly. Maybe it did come from a practice
test. It seems too stupid to have come from an actual test!? ;-)
