  Jeff Doyle's Routing TCP/IP is a great book. I would also look at Cisco's 
website and see how this is configured and see if you find anything showing 
configuration of OSPF in interface config mode. If you pay close attention 
to how OSPF is configured on the router you can understand that it is 
configured for particular networks (and in OSPF areas). So then you can 
figure the router doesn't care too much about which lower layer protocol is 
carrying IP as long as the routing info gets to everyone in the domains 
necessary. There are wierd acceptions to be aware of, but they are how this 
protocol instructs the SPF routers to communicate routing info in certain 
situations like in frame multipoint (because OSPF tries to use a Designated 
router in many cases to cut down on bandwidth overhead from update messages 
in a meshed network). Get crazy and try it out.
