Hi Matthew, You must always specify the transit area when configuring a virtual link. So use following command on both area border routers: area transit-area virtual-link ip-address
The configs on page 310 are not correct, since the transit area in the picture seems to be area 1. Moreover "area 1 stub" should be removed from the config. Configs should be like this: 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 1 virtual-link 10.10.10.30 Router Darius ========= interface loopback 0 ip address 10.10.10.30 255.255.255.0 router 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 1 virtual-link 10.10.10.33 Actually I'm trying to find an errata for the CCNP Routing Exam Certification Guide. I couldn't find it on the Cisco Press web site. Does anyone have an errata for this routing certification guide?
