Lab 7 2 OSPF - TannerWeinacker/NET-330-01 GitHub Wiki

Setting up OSPF

  • First things first, you will need to configure the network
  • Once every router and PC has an IP address and default gateways set, you will then start to configure OSPF

Configuring OSPF

  • For OSPF you will need to be in the config tab
  • The command you will need is "Router ospf 1"
  • The ospf 1 is the instance, this does not have to be the same across the routers
  • Once you are configuring the router you will need the command "network network_mask wildcard_subnet area 0"
  • The area 0 is very important here, this is defining the area that the routers will communicate on, if you want to be able to communicate between routers, you will need to keep the area consistent
