Ever wonder what the CCIE candidates talk about on the CCIE list?
The following message came through today. I thought the bright folks on this
list might be curious, and might want to venture an answer.
Begin original question:
Guys,
I wonder if there is anybody who remembers the discussion on Virtual
Links in OSPF. It was posted some time ago but I can't seem to find it.
The scenario was something like this:
________ _______ _______
|Area 0 | |Area1| |Area2|
| R0 |--| R1 |--| R2 |
|______| |_____| |_____|
There is a virtual link from area 2 to Area 0 via Area1. Traffic needs to
get to R1 in Area 1 from R2 in Area 2. Assume that the virtual link has to
use R1 (To create the V.Link). Does the traffic flow passed R1 (in Area 1)
to Area 0 and then back to area 1, or does the actual flow just to R1 from
R2.
I cant remember the conclusion, and I cant seem to find it on the archives.
Quite interesting issues.
End of original question

One IOS to forward them all.
One IOS to find them.
One IOS to summarize them all
And in the routing table bind them.
