Configuring Multi-Area OSPF

Lab Objective:

The objective of this lab exercise is for you to learn and understand how to enable OSPF using more than one Area.

Enabling multi-area OSPF is a fundamental skill. When configuring multi-area OSPF, it is imperative to remember that all Area's must be connected to the OSPF backbone Area, which is Area 0. As a Cisco engineer, as well as in the Cisco CCNA exam, you will be expected to know how to enable multi-area OSPF.
