Re: ospf area0 not connected

Hello,

 

I hope you are doing well. From what I understand, you have two separate areas, both area 0. The trunk links a019-a020 and b019-b020 are both configured in area 1. Taking the previous into account:

 

1. This will prevent the router's in one area 0 to see the routes from the other area 0 routers. For example,a019 will only see the routes from b019 and the area 1 link with a020, but it will not install any routes from a020-b020's backbone. So no traffic will be able to flow from the left side of your diagram to the right and vice-versa.

2. The logical thing would be to change the area1 links to area0, but that's obvious and I imagine you have reasons for not doing this, what are this conditions? You could use virtual-links or multiarea adjacency. But the most important questions to really give a good answer are:

- Why are a019-a020 and b019-b020 links in area 1 and for which reasons should they remain that way (if there are any)?

- What is the role of router1, router4, router5 and router6? Are they also part of ospf, if so of which area?

 

Regards,
