Objectives

Part 1: Build the Network and Configure Basic Device Settings and Interface Addressing

Part 2: Configure and Verify Multiarea OSPF for IPv4 on R1, D1, and D2

Part 3: Exploring Link State Announcements

Background / Scenario

To make OSPF more efficient and scalable, OSPF supports hierarchical routing using the areas. An OSPF area is a group of routers that share the same link-state information in their link-state databases (LSDBs). When a large OSPF area is divided into smaller areas, it is called multiarea OSPF. Multi-area OSPF is useful in larger network deployments to reduce processing and memory overhead.

In this lab you will configure multiarea OSPF version 2 for IPv4. This lab was specifically designed to use three routers and two Layer 3 switches.

Note: This lab is an exercise in developing, deploying, and verifying how multiarea OSPF operates and does not reflect networking best practices.

Note: The routers used with this CCNP hands-on lab is a Cisco 4221and the two Layer 3 switches are Catalyst 3560 switches. Other routers and Layer 3 switches and Cisco IOS versions can be used. Depending on the model and Cisco IOS version, the commands available and the output produced might vary from what is shown in the labs.

Note: Ensure that the routers and switches have been erased and have no startup configurations. If you are unsure contact your instructor.

Answers Note: Refer to the Answers Lab Manual for the procedures to initialize and reload devices.

4. Verify direct connectivity between all five devices. R1 is shown as an example.

R1# ping 10.10.0.2

Type escape sequence to abort.

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.10.0.2, timeout is 2 seconds:

..!!!

Success rate is 60 percent (3/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 2/2/2 ms

R1# ping 172.16.0.1

Type escape sequence to abort.

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.0.1, timeout is 2 seconds:

.!!!!

Success rate is 80 percent (4/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/1 ms

All five devices should be able to reach the other directly connected networks. Troubleshoot if necessary.

Part 2:Configure Multiarea OSPFv2

In this part, you will implement multiarea OSPF. Multiarea OSPF defines a two-layer area hierarchy using a backbone area interconnecting regular areas. This is useful in larger network deployments to reduce processing and memory overhead.

In this topology, OSPF has the following three areas defined:

• Area 0 – The backbone area. All regular areas should connect to the backbone area.
• Area 1 and Area 2 – Regular OSPF areas that connect to the backbone area.

The routers and switches in the topology are used in the following roles:

• Internal routers – R2 is an internal router in Area 0, D1 is internal in Area 1, and D2 is internal in Area 2.
• Backbone routers – R1, R2, and R3 are backbone routers as they all have interfaces in Area 0.
• Area Border routers (ABRs) – R1 and R3 are ABRs because they connect regular areas (i.e., Area 1 and Area 2) to the backbone Area 0.
• Autonomous System Boundary router (ASBR) – R2 is an ASBR because it connects to another non-OSPF network.

Recall that OSPF can be enabled using the traditional network router configuration command or by using the ip ospf process-id area area-id interface configuration command. Although the interface method is simpler, the OSPF routing configuration commands are applied to individual interfaces and not conveniently found in a central location. Therefore, in this lab, we will implement multiarea OSPF using wildcard masks.

You will now configure multiarea OSPF on all five devices starting with D1. You will also configure router IDs, reference bandwidths, and default route propagation.

Note: The verification output displayed in the following part assumes that the devices have been configured in the prescribed order. The output will vary if all devices are configured simultaneously.

Step 1:Implement OSPF on D1 using wildcard masks.

D1 will advertise its OSPF networks using the network router configuration command and wildcard masks. D1 is an internal router in Area 1. Therefore, both network commands will be configured for Area 1.

1. Layer 3 switches are not enabled to perform routing by default. Therefore, routing must be enabled using the ip routing global configuration command.

Open configuration window

D1(config)# ip routing

2. Next, enter the OSPF router configuration mode using process ID 123, assign D1 the router ID 1.1.1.2. You will also set the reference bandwidth to distinguish between Gigabit Ethernet and FastEthernet interfaces. Changing the reference bandwidth to a higher value allows for a differentiation of cost between higher-speed interfaces.

D1(config)# router ospf 123

D1(config-router)# router-id 1.1.1.2

D1(config-router)# auto-cost reference-bandwidth 1000

% OSPF: Reference bandwidth is changed.

Please ensure reference bandwidth is consistent across all routers.

Note: Setting the reference cost value too high may cause issues with low-bandwidth interfaces.

3. Configure D1 to advertise the FastEthernet 0/5 interface 10.10.0.0/30 network in OSPF Area 1. The wildcard mask can be calculated by deducting the subnet mask (i.e., /30 = 255.255.255.252) from 255.255.255.255, resulting in a wildcard mask of 0.0.0.3.

D1(config-router)# network 10.10.0.0 0.0.0.3 area 1

4. Next, configure D1 to advertise its Fa0/23 interface 10.10.1.0/24 network in OSPF Area 1 and return to privileged EXEC mode.

D1(config-router)# network 10.10.1.0 0.0.0.255 area 1

D1(config-router)# end

5. Verify the OSPF configuration on D1 using the show ip protocols command.

D1# show ip protocols

Distance: (default is 110)

The output confirms the router ID, and the number of areas, and the networks advertised. Notice there are no Routing Information Sources because there are no OSPF neighbors.

6. Verify the OSPF interfaces using the show ip ospf interface brief command.

D1# show ip ospf interface brief

Gi1/0/23123110.10.1.1/2410DR0/0

Gi1/0/11 123110.10.0.2/3010DR0/0

The output confirms that both G1/0/11 and G1/0/23 interfaces were correctly assigned to Area 1.

7. Finally, verify the OSPF routes in the routing table using the show ip route ospf command.

D1# show ip route ospf

Close configuration window

Notice that no routes are displayed. This is because D1 does not yet have an OSPF neighbor.

Step 2:Implement OSPF on R1.

Next, configure R1. R1 is an ABR with an interface in Area 1 and the other interface in the backbone.

1. Enter the OSPF router configuration mode using process ID 123, assign R1 the router ID 1.1.1.1, and set the reference bandwidth to distinguish between Gigabit Ethernet and FastEthernet interfaces.

Open configuration window

R1(config)# router ospf 123

R1(config-router)# router-id 1.1.1.1

R1(config-router)# auto-cost reference-bandwidth 1000

% OSPF: Reference bandwidth is changed.

Please ensure reference bandwidth is consistent across all routers.

2. Configure R1 to advertise the G0/0/0 interface 172.16.0.0/30 network in OSPF Area 0.

R1(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.0.3 area 0

3. Advertise the G0/0/1 interface 10.10.0.0/30 network in OSPF Area 1 and return to privileged EXEC mode.

R1(config-router)# network 10.10.0.0 0.0.0.3 area 1

R1(config-router)# end

*Jan4 11:55:32.064: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 123, Nbr 1.1.1.2 on GigabitEthernet0/0/1 from LOADING to FULL, Loading Done

Notice the informational message stating that a neighbor adjacency has been established with D1 (i.e., 1.1.1.2).

4. Verify the OSPF configuration on R1 using the show ip protocols command.

R1# show ip protocols | begin ospf

Routing Protocol is “ospf 123″

Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set

Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set

Router ID 1.1.1.1

It is an area border router

Number of areas in this router is 2. 2 normal 0 stub 0 nssa

Maximum path: 4

Routing Information Sources:

GatewayDistanceLast Update

1.1.1.211000:07:55

Distance: (default is 110)

Like the previous output of D1, this output confirms the router ID, and the networks advertised. However, notice that it also explicitly states that R1 is an area border router (ABR), that it is in two areas, and that it has established an adjacency and exchanged routing information with D2 (i.e., 1.1.1.2).

5. Verify that the reference bandwidth has been changed using the show ip ospf| begin Ref command.

R1# show ip ospf | begin Ref

The output confirms that the reference bandwidth has been changed to distinguish GigabitEthernet interfaces. The output also confirms that R1 is in two areas and has two link-state databases (LSDBs).

Note: Area 0 is currently inactive because there are no other peers configured yet.

6. Verify the active OSPF interfaces and assigned areas using the show ip ospf interface brief command.

R1# show ip ospf interface brief

The output confirms the interfaces, areas, and IP addresses.

7. Verify which OSPF neighbors R1 has established an adjacency with using the show ip ospf neighbor command.

R1# show ip ospf neighbor

Neighbor IDPriStateDead TimeAddressInterface

1.1.1.21FULL/DR00:00:3110.10.0.2GigabitEthernet0/0/1

The output confirms that R1 has one neighbor (i.e., 1.1.1.2 = D1), they have a full adjacency established, the IP address of D1 is 10.10.0.2, and R1 can reach D1 using its G0/0/1 interface.

8. Use the show ip ospf neighbor detail command to get additional information about neighbor adjacencies.

Last retransmission scan length is 0, maximum is 0

Last retransmission scan time is 0 msec, maximum is 0 msec

As shown, the output confirms various information about the OSPF neighbor including DR and BDR status.

9. Verify the OSPF routes in the routing table using the show ip route ospf command.

R1# show ip route ospf | begin Gateway

Gateway of last resort is not set

10.0.0.0/8 is variably subnetted, 3 subnets, 3 masks

O10.10.1.0/24 [110/11] via 10.10.0.2, 00:24:43, GigabitEthernet0/0/1

The output displays an entry for the D1 LAN. The O designation identifies this as an OSPF internal route. Network routes learned from other OSPF routers in the same area are known as intra-area routes and are identified in the IP routing table with an O.

10. Finally, get detailed information on how R1 learned about the OSPF entry using the show ip route ospf 10.10.1.0 command.

R1# show ip route 10.10.1.0

Routing entry for 10.10.1.0/24

Known via “ospf 123“, distance 110, metric 11, type intra area

Last update from 10.10.0.2 on GigabitEthernet0/0/1, 00:25:25 ago

Routing Descriptor Blocks:

* 10.10.0.2, from 1.1.1.2, 00:25:25 ago, via GigabitEthernet0/0/1

Route metric is 11, traffic share count is 1

The output confirms that R1 learned about the intra-area route 10.10.1.0 from 10.10.0.2 with a router ID of 1.1.1.2 in OSPF 123.

Close configuration window

Step 3:Implement OSPF on R2.

Next, configure is R2. R2 is an internal backbone router and will become an ASBR.

1. Enter the OSPF router configuration mode using process ID 123, assign R2 the router ID 2.2.2.1, and set the reference bandwidth to distinguish between Gigabit Ethernet and FastEthernet interfaces.

Open configuration window

R2(config)# router ospf 123

R2(config-router)# router-id 2.2.2.1

R2(config-router)# auto-cost reference-bandwidth 1000

% OSPF: Reference bandwidth is changed.

Please ensure reference bandwidth is consistent across all routers.

2. Configure R2 to advertise its two interfaces in OSPF Area 0.

R2(config-router)# network 172.16.0.0 0.0.0.3 area 0

R2(config-router)# network 172.16.1.0 0.0.0.3 area 0

*Dec 28 16:22:42.530: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 123, Nbr 1.1.1.1 on GigabitEthernet0/0/0 from LOADING to FULL, Loading Done

The output confirms that an adjacency has been established with R1 (i.e., 1.1.1.1).

Note: Alternatively, the two network statements could be combined using network 17.16.0.0 0.0.1.3 area 0.

3. Configure R2 to propagate a default route to the internet. In our lab, the internet is represented as a loopback interface.

R2(config-router)# default-information originate

R2(config-router)# exit

R2(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 lo0

%Default route without gateway, if not a point-to-point interface, may impact performance

R2(config)# exit

4. Verify the OSPF configuration on R2 using the show ip protocols command.

R2# show ip protocols | begin ospf

Routing Protocol is “ospf 123″

Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set

Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set

Router ID 2.2.2.1

It is an autonomous system boundary router

Routing Information Sources:

GatewayDistanceLast Update

1.1.1.111000:24:29

Distance: (default is 110)

Again, this output confirms the router ID chosen, number of areas R2 is in (i.e., 1), networks advertised, and that it has established an adjacency and exchanged routing information with R1 (i.e., 1.1.1.1). R2 does not have an adjacency with D1 because it is in another area.

Notice as well, that it explicitly states that R2 is an autonomous system boundary router (ASBR). This is because it is now propagating a default route to all other routers in the OSPF domain.

5. Verify that the reference bandwidth has been changed using the show ip ospf | begin Ref command as shown.

R2# show ip ospf | begin Ref

Reference bandwidth unit is 1000 mbps

Area BACKBONE(0)

Number of interfaces in this area is 2

Flood list length 0

The output confirms that the reference bandwidth has been changed and also confirms that R2 has two interfaces in its link-state database (LSDB).

6. Verify the active OSPF interfaces and assigned areas using the show ip ospf interface brief command.

The output confirms that R2 has one neighbor (i.e., 1.1.1.1 = R1) and they have a full adjacency established.

8. Use the show ip ospf neighbor detail command to get additional information about neighbor adjacencies.

R2# show ip ospf neigh detail

Last retransmission scan time is 0 msec, maximum is 0 msec

As shown, the output confirms various information about the OSPF neighbor including DR and BDR status.

9. Verify the OSPF routes in the routing table using the show ip route ospf command.

R2# show ip route ospf | begin Gateway

Gateway of last resort is 0.0.0.0 to network 0.0.0.0

10.0.0.0/8 is variably subnetted, 2 subnets, 2 masks

O IA10.10.0.0/30 [110/2] via 172.16.0.2, 00:28:19, GigabitEthernet0/0/0

O IA10.10.1.0/24 [110/12] via 172.16.0.2, 00:28:19, GigabitEthernet0/0/0

The output displays that there is now a default gateway and two entries for the OSPF Area 1 networks. Notice how these routes are identified as O IA which means they are routes from another area. Network routes learned from OSPF routers in another area using an ABR are known as interarea routes as opposed to intra-area routes.

10. Verify the static route entry in the routing table.

R2# show ip route static | begin Gateway

Gateway of last resort is 0.0.0.0 to network 0.0.0.0

S*0.0.0.0/0 is directly connected, Loopback0

11. Finally, get detailed information on how R2 learned about the OSPF entry using the show ip route ospf 10.10.1.0 command.

R2# show ip route 10.10.1.0

Routing entry for 10.10.1.0/24

Known via “ospf 123″, distance 110, metric 12, type inter area

Last update from 172.16.0.2 on GigabitEthernet0/0/0, 00:31:08 ago

Routing Descriptor Blocks:

* 172.16.0.2, from 1.1.1.1, 00:31:08 ago, via GigabitEthernet0/0/0

Route metric is 12, traffic share count is 1

The output confirms that R2 learned about the interarea route 10.10.1.0 from OSPF 123 and specifically from R1, based on the router ID of 1.1.1.1.

Close configuration window

Step 4:Implement OSPF on R3.

Next to configure is R3. Like R1, R3 is an ABR with an interface in Area 0 and one in Area 2.

1. Enter the OSPF router configuration mode using process ID 123, assign R3 the router ID 3.3.3.1, and set the reference bandwidth to distinguish between Gigabit Ethernet and FastEthernet interfaces.

Open configuration window

R3(config)# router ospf 123

R3(config-router)# router-id 3.3.3.1

R3(config-router)# auto-cost reference-bandwidth 1000

% OSPF: Reference bandwidth is changed.

Note: Please ensure reference bandwidth is consistent across all routers.

2. Configure R3 to advertise its interfaces in OSPF Area 0 and Area 2 accordingly and then return to privileged EXEC mode.

R3(config-router)# network 172.16.1.0 0.0.0.3 area 0

R3(config-router)# network 10.10.4.0 0.0.0.3 area 2

O172.16.0.0/30 [110/2] via 172.16.1.1, 00:26:08, GigabitEthernet0/0/0

The output verifies that R3 has received a default route from R2, two interarea routes (i.e., O IA routes) and one intra-area OSPF route (i.e., O routes). The O*E2 route indicates that this is an external route that did not originate in OSPF. The asterisk identifies this as a candidate default route.

9. Now get detailed information on how R3 learned about the O E2 and O IA routes.

R3# show ip route 0.0.0.0

The output confirms that R3 learned about the default route from R2 (2.2.2.1) and interarea routes from R1 (1.1.1.1) via OSPF.

Close configuration window

Step 5:Implement OSPF on D2.

Last to configure is D2. Like D1, D2 is an internal router in Area 2.

1. Layer 3 switches are not enabled to perform routing by default. Therefore, routing must be enabled using the ip routing global configuration command.

Open configuration window

D2(config)# ip routing

2. Next, enter the OSPF router configuration mode using process ID 123, assign the D2 the router ID 3.3.3.2, and set the reference bandwidth to distinguish between Gigabit Ethernet and FastEthernet interfaces.

D2(config)# router ospf 123

D2(config-router)# router-id 3.3.3.2

D2(config-router)# auto-cost reference-bandwidth 1000

% OSPF: Reference bandwidth is changed.

Please ensure reference bandwidth is consistent across all routers.

3. Configure D2 to advertise its interfaces in OSPF Area 2 and return to privileged EXEC mode.

D2(config-router)# network 10.10.4.0 0.0.0.3 area 2

D2(config-router)# network 10.10.5.0 0.0.0.255 area 2

D2(config-router)# end

4. Verify the OSPF configuration on D2 using the show ip protocols command.

D2# show ip protocols

Routing Protocol is “ospf 123″

Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set

Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set

Router ID 3.3.3.2

Number of areas in this router is 1. 1 normal 0 stub 0 nssa

Maximum path: 4

Routing for Networks:

GatewayDistanceLast Update

3.3.3.111000:09:35

2.2.2.111000:04:38

Distance: (default is 110)

As expected, we can verify the router ID, number of areas, networks being advertised, and routing sources. It may be surprising that R2 (i.e., 2.2.2.1) is displayed as a routing source. The reason is because it is the source of the default route.

5. Verify that the reference bandwidth has been changed using the show ip ospf | begin Ref command as shown.

D2# show ip ospf | begin Ref

Reference bandwidth unit is 1000 mbps

Area 2

Number of interfaces in this area is 2

The output confirms that the two interfaces are in Area 2 and their IP addresses are correct.

7. Verify which OSPF neighbors D2 has established an adjacency with using the show ip ospf neighbor command.

D2# show ip ospf neighbor

Neighbor IDPriStateDead TimeAddressInterface

O IA172.16.1.0 [110/2] via 10.10.4.1, 00:09:00, GigabitEthernet1/0/11

The output displays four interarea routes (i.e., O IA routes) and the OSPF external route from 2.2.2.1(R2).

D2# show ip route 0.0.0.0

As we can see, the routing source for the default route is R2 (i.e., 2.2.2.1).

Step 6:Verify end-to-end connectivity.

The multiarea OSPF network is now completely configured. We now need to verify the operation of OSPF.

1. From PC1, verify that it has been assigned the correct IP address as listed in the Addressing Table using the ipconfig Windows command.

Open configuration window

Part 3:Exploring Link State Announcements

In this part, you will verify that the network has converged and explore how link-state advertisements (LSAs) are used as the building blocks for the OSPF link-state database (LSDB).

OSPF routers create LSAs for every directly connected OSPF–enabled interface. It then sends those LSAs to OSPF peers to form adjacencies. Individually, LSAs are database records providing specific OSPF network details. Combined, they describe the entire topology of an OSPF area.

OSPF routers uses six LSA types for IPv4 routing:

• Type 1, router LSA – All OSPF–enabled routers create and send type 1 LSAs. The LSAs are immediately propagated within the area. An ABR does not forward the LSA outside the area.
• Type 2, network LSA – Only a DR generates and advertises a type 2 LSA. The type 2 network LSA lists each of the attached routers that make up the transit network, including the DR itself, and the subnet mask that is used on the link. The DR floods the LSA to all OSPF routers (i.e., 224.0.0.5) on the multiaccess network. The content of the displayed type 2 LSA describes the network segment listing the DR address, the attached routers, and the used subnet mask. This information is used by each router participating in OSPF to build the exact picture of the described multiaccess segment, which cannot be fully described with just type 1 LSAs.
• Type 3, summary LSA – ABRs do not forward type 1 or type 2 LSAs into other areas. ABRs flood type 3 LSAs to propagate network information to other areas. Type 3 summary LSAs describe networks that are in an area to the rest of the areas in the OSPF autonomous system.
• Type 4, ASBR summary LSA – When there is an ASBR in the OSPF domain, it advertises itself using a special type 1 LSA. When an ABR receives this type 1 LSA, it builds a type 4 LSA to advertise the existence of the ASBR and floods it to other areas. Subsequent ABRs regenerate a type 4 LSA and flood it into their areas.
• Type 5, AS external LSA – ASBRs generate a type 5 external LSAs to advertise external OSPF routes to the OSPF domain. Type 5 LSAs are originated by the ASBR and are flooded to the entire autonomous system.
• Type 7, NSSA external LSA – This is a special LSA generated by a not-so-stubby (NSSA) ASBR to advertise external OSPF networks to an OSPF domain. The ABR converts the type 7 LSA to a type 5 LSA and propagates it to other areas. An NSSA network is a special-case area type used to reduce the amount of flooding, the LSDB size, and the routing table size in routers within the area.

Note: Other LSAs also exist but are out of scope of this lab.

The focus of this section will be on LSA types 1, 2, and 3 which are used to identify intra-area and interarea routes.

Step 1:Verifying OSPF and Exploring LSAs on D1.

D1 is an internal router and generates type 1 LSAs.It is also the DR on the link connecting to R1 and therefore generates type 2 LSAs.

1. On D1, display the list of neighbors using the show ip ospf neighbors command.

Open configuration window

D1# show ip ospf neighbor

Neighbor IDPriStateDead TimeAddressInterface

1.1.1.11FULL/BDR00:00:3210.10.0.1GigabitEthernet1/0/11

The output confirms that R1 (i.e., 1.1.1.1) is a neighbor and is the BDR on the link. Therefore, D1 must be the DR.

2. Verify the OSPF routing table using the show ip router ospf | begin Gateway command.

D1# show ip route ospf | begin Gateway

Gateway of last resort is 10.10.0.1 to network 0.0.0.0

O*E20.0.0.0/0 [110/1] via 10.10.0.1, 01:15:48, GigabitEthernet1/0/11

10.0.0.0/8 is variably subnetted, 6 subnets, 3 masks

O IA10.10.4.0/30 [110/4] via 10.10.0.1, 00:52:50, GigabitEthernet1/0/11

O IA10.10.5.0/24 [110/14] via 10.10.0.1, 00:24:49, GigabitEthernet1/0/11

172.16.0.0/30 is subnetted, 2 subnets

O IA172.16.0.0 [110/2] via 10.10.0.1, 02:05:06, GigabitEthernet1/0/11

O IA172.16.1.0 [110/3] via 10.10.0.1, 01:18:11, GigabitEthernet1/0/11

The routing table lists the four interarea networks and one external OSPF network.

3. D1 learned about these networks from LSAs. A router maintains a LSDB for each area it has interfaces in. Because D1 is an internal OSPF router, it will only have entries for Area 1. To display the contents of the LSDB of D1, use the show ip ospf database command.

Notice how the command output is divided into the following five sections:

• Router Link States – These are the type 1 LSAs received by D1 and they identify the routers (i.e., 1.1.1.1 = R1, 1.1.1.2 = D1) in Area 1 that sent them, and the number of links that the routers have in the area. Therefore, R1 only has one interface in Area 1 and D1 has 2 interfaces in Area 1.
• Net Link States – These are the type 2 LSAs generated by the DR. In our example, the DR is 1.1.1.2 (i.e., D1) on the link 10.10.0.2.
• Summary Net Link States – These are the type 3 LSAs describing remote networks (i.e., our O IA networks or interarea routes) and the router that advertised them to D1.
• Summary ASB Link States – This is a type 4 LSA sent by the ABR (i.e., 1.1.1.1 = R1) advertising that there is an ASBR in the network (i.e., 2.2.2.1).
• Type-5 AS External Link States – This is a type 5 LSA advertising a default route (i.e., 0.0.0.0) and the router that is advertising it (i.e., 2.2.2.1).
  4. Additional information about the Router Link States type 1 LSA can be gathered using the show ip ospf database router command.

The output provides more information about the type 1 LSAs. The first router link (i.e., type 1) LSA is from R1 (i.e., 1.1.1.1). It is an ABR with only 1 link in Area 1 which is the transit network connecting to D1. The second router link portion identifies the transit network connecting to R1 and the stub network of D1 (i.e., 10.10.1.0/24).

An OSPF link can be connected to a stub, to another router (point-to-point), or to a transit network. The transit network usually describes an Ethernet segment which can include two or more routers. If the link is connected to a transit network, the LSA also includes the IP address of the DR.

Router Interface Summary Table

Note: To find out how the router is configured, look at the interfaces to identify the type of router and how many interfaces the router has. There is no way to effectively list all the combinations of configurations for each router class. This table includes identifiers for the possible combinations of Ethernet and Serial interfaces in the device. The table does not include any other type of interface, even though a specific router may contain one. An example of this might be an ISDN BRI interface. The string in parenthesis is the legal abbreviation that can be used in Cisco IOS commands to represent the interface.
