Part 1: Evaluate Network Operation of SingleArea OSPF

Part 2: Evaluate Network Operation of Multiarea OSPF

Part 3: Configure a New Area and Attach to Area 0 Through the Internet

Topology

Background / Scenario

Part 1: The Beginning

Casual Recording Company, based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, provides self-serve, mini-recording studios around the city so that anyone can rent a timeslot and record their songs by themselves. CRC began with a single area OSPF network located in one building. This idea was very popular and consequently the business has grown, causing the company to expand into a branch office in a second building at the far end of the city. They continued to use single-area OSPF. You will evaluate the impact of the expanded network.

Part 2: Business is Booming

The IT department in CRC decided to migrate to a multiarea OSPF network. You will evaluate the impact and benefits derived from the change to determine if it was a good decision or not.

Part 3: CRC Expansion Continues

CRC has continued to grow and will open a new branch office in Montevideo, Uruguay. You will configure the Area Border Router for the new area and physically connect the branch office network to the corporate headquarters network through the internet.

Instructions

Part 2: Evaluate Multiarea OSPF Network Operation

In this part, CRC has migrated their singlearea OSPF to multiarea OSPF.

Step 1:  Explore OSPF Area 1 devices in the Corporate HQ and Branch Office.

  1. Click the city icon for Sao Paulo, and then click Corporate HQ. Click the rack icon that represents the Sao Paulo HQ Wiring Closet.
  2. Click A1_ABR1, and then select the CLI tab.
  3. The terminal should show that G0/0 and G1/0 are up and that two adjacencies have been established, as shown below. If not, wait for the OSPF loading process to complete.

Questions:

Is the summary route for Area 51 still in the routing table?

Type your answer here.

Yes.

Has the value for the SPF algorithm executions increased from Step 1g?

Type your answer here.

The answer should be no. However, the number of executions may have changed if the student deviated from the instructions and performed an action that would cause addition SPF calculations such as reloading a router or shutting down an interface in Area 1.

Will a ping or a tracert between A1_PC1 (192.168.1.10) and A51_PC1 (10.20.4.10) be successful?

No. A ping from A1_PC1 to A51_PC1 should fail. A tracert from A1_PC1 to A51_PC1 should stop at A51_ABR1.

Note: The area 51 border router, A51_ABR1 has summarized the 10.0.0.0/8 networks and is advertising the summary route to all the other areas. Topology changes in area 51, such as power failures, interface disconnects, or OSPF network changes, will cause SPF recalculations on all routers within area 51 but will NOT cause SPF recalculations in area 1.

Step 3:  Summarize the Area 1 routes to be sent to Area 51.

  1. Select router A51_R4 and execute the show ip route.

Compare the output of A51_R4 to the output of A1_R4. You should notice that all of the 192.168.0.0 networks from area 1 are showing inside the routing table.

Questions:

If a cleaning crew accidentally removed the cable on A1_R1 (192.168.1.0/24), how will the routers in area 51 be affected?

Type your answer here.

All area 51 routers would have SPF algorithm executions and would have to update their routing tables.

What could be done to avoid the area 51 recalculations?

Type your answer here.

Router A1_ABR1 should summarize the 192.168.0.0/16 networks of area 1.

  1. Navigate to A1_ABR1. Using the CLI tab, enter the following commands to implement OSPF summarization for the 192.168.0.0 network in area 1:

A1_ABR1(config)# router ospf 1

A1_ABR1(config-router)# area 1 range 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0

A1_ABR1(config-router)# end

Note: Summarizing OSPF routes is beyond the scope of this course and the CCNA exam.

  1. Return to the screen of A51_R4 and execute a show ip route command.

Question:

How is the routing table output different following the summarization?

Type your answer here.

The networks from area 1 are all summarized with an interarea route:
IA 192.168.0.0/16 [110/4] via 10.10.0.21, 00:14:04, GigabitEthernet2/0

Note: Multiarea OSPF provides the benefit of summarization between areas. The summarization helps to reduce the size of routing tables and reduces the frequency of LSA flooding throughout the entire system. With summarization, a change in one area will cause all routers within that area to execute SPF.  Routing tables and SPF recalculations for routers in other areas will not be affected. Connectivity to the downed network(s) still poses an issue.
