Hi all, I am studying the Cisco text "CCNP Routing" Exam Certification Guide and on page 310 there is an example configuration:
Router Jack interface loopback 0 ip address 10.10.10.33 255.255.255.0 router ospf 100 network 172.16.20.128 0.0.0.7 area 0 network 172.16.20.8 0.0.0.7 area 1 area 0 range 172.16.20.128 255.255.255.192 area 1 stub area 1 default-cost 15 area 5 virtual-link 10.10.10.30 Router Darius loopback interface 0 ip address 10.10.10.30 255.255.255.0 ospf 100 network 172.16.20.32 0.0.0.7 area 5 network 172.16.20.64 0.0.0.7 area 1 area 5 virtual-link 10.0.0.33 I'm interested in lines 10 and 17. I thought the area-id specified is the transit area, whereas in the diagram over the page the transit area is area 1, and area 0 has a virtual link to area 5. However here they have the area-id as 5, and not 1 (I would have thought it was 1). Can anyone confirm whether the area-id is 1 or 5, and why? any help appreciated. Matthew.
