  OSPF Multi-Area Configurationg We will use the following topology: Above we have R1 and R2 in area 0, the backbone area. Between R1 and R3, we will use area 1 and between R2/R4 we will use area 2. R3 and R4 have a loopback interface with an IP address that we will advertise in their area. Configuration Let’s start with all network commands to get OSPF up and running. The network command defines to which area each interface will belong.First, we will configure R1 and R2 for the backbone area: R1(config)# router ospf 1 R1(config-router)# network 192.168.12.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 R2(config)# router ospf 1 R2(config-router)# network 192.168.12.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 Let’s configure R1 and R3 for area 1: R1(config)# router ospf 1 R1(config-router)# network 192.168.13.0 0.0.0.255 area 1 R3(config)# router ospf 1 R3(config-router)# network 192.168.13.0 0.0.0.255 area 1 R3(config-router)# network 3.3.3.3 0.0.0.0 area 1 And last but not least, R2 and R4 for area 2: R2(config)# router ospf 1 R2(

 #ospf #protocol #configuration #lab #DR #BDR Lab objectives: Ensure router R1 is the DR for network 100.1.1.0 /24. Ensure router R3 is the BDR for network 100.1.1.0 /24. Ensure router R5 is the DR for network 100.1.2.0 /24. without changing the priority Ensure router R2 is the BDR for network 100.1.2.0 /24. You are not allowed to change the priority. Solution configurations: R1: conf t int fa 0/0 ip address 100.1.1.2 255.255.255.0 no shutdown exit router ospf 10 network 100.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 network 100.1.2.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 log-adjacency-changes conf t router ospf 10 log-adjacency-changes exit exit R2: the solution to achieve all objectives: change priority of R1 must be higher than R3 change priority of R2 must be lower than R1 change router-id manually to higher router ID 120.120.120.2
