If the narrator says in the chain of narration: "from a man," what is the correct classification?

The questioner : If the narrator says in the chain of narration: "from a man," what is the correct classification? Is it a mursal (a report missing the Companion link), a munqati' (a report with a broken chain), or a muttasil (a connected report) if the person is not a Companion, or if the unnamed person is not a Companion?

The Shaykh : It is a connected report, but it ends with an unknown man if he was not a Companion.
