Network Requirements
- Configure OSPF for all devices, and divide the devices into two areas, Area 0 and Area 1.
- To decrease the number of inter-area routes, inter-area routes are summarized on the ABR. The routes in Area 0 are summarized to form 10.0.0.0/16. The routes in Area 1 are summarized to form 20.0.0.0/16.
Network Topology
Figure 7-6 Networking for Configure Route Summary on Inter-Area OSPF Routes
Configuration Steps
Step 1: Create VLANs, and add ports to the required VLANs. (Omitted)
Step 2: Configure IP addresses for the ports. (Omitted)
Step 3: Configure an OSPF process and let the interface cover different areas.

Similarly, the OSPF database of Device3 contains three inter-area LSAs, and the three routes have been added into the routing table.
Step 4: On the ABR, configure inter-area route summary. Now Device2 is the ABR.
#On Device2, summarize the routes in Area 0 to form route 10.0.0.0/16, and summarize the routes in Area 1 to form route 20.0.0.0/16.
|
Device2(config)#router ospf 100
Device2(config-ospf)#area 0 range 10.0.0.0/16
Device2(config-ospf)#area 1 range 20.0.0.0/16
Device2(config-ospf)#exit

Step 5: Check the result.
#Query the OSPF LSDB and routing table of Device2.

Comparing the result with the result of Step 2, you will find that only one summarized inter-area LSA is generated respectively for Area 0 and Area 1 in the OSPF database of Device2. Similarly, a summary route with the output interface being Null0 is automatically added into the routing table.

On Device1, you will find that the OSPF database contains only the summarized inter-area LSA, and the routing table leans only the summary route 20.0.0.0/16 of Area 1. Similarly, Device3 learns only the summary route 10.0.0.0/16 of Area 0.
