I'm really quite confused by this. I am working through a lab currently which uses OSPF, EIGRP and BGP. I haven't reached the BGP bit yet which is okay, but there is an OSPF/EIGRP bit I don't get.
+--------+ +-----------+ +---------------+ | | | | +-----------------+ | +-------------------+ R1| s0 | s1 |-------------------| s0 | | s1 | R2 +-----------------+ | +-------------------+ | | | | OSPF | EIGRP | OSPF | | OSPF AREA 1 | | AREA 0 | | AREA 2 +--------+ +-----------+ +---------------+ I realise that if R1-S1s network were placed into Area 0 then everything would flood through regardless of EIGRP. If I put R1-S1 into another OSPF Area - 3 say - then I could set up a virtual link. As this lab is presented to me, neither of those are options. In effect I want to use EIGRP as a transit area to allow the OSPF Area1 to connect to the OSPF Area0. How do I do this? I have searched quite hard around the web and come up with nothing other than virtual-links through an OSPF area which is a technology I understand - in concept at least. Anyone point me to anything to explain this? cheers Danny Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=26377&t=26377 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
