CLI Command
To create OSPF areas, use the following CLI command:
(configure router:ospf)#
area <area-id> <option>
* Note: If you use the network area CLI command to add an interface
to an OSPF area, be careful not to enter the IP mask for the
<wildcard-mask> variable. The <wildcard-mask> variable is
the inverse of a network mask. Enter a 32-bit number in four-
part, dotted decimal format. Place ones in the bit positions that
you want to mask.
For example, to enable OSPF on interface 10.10.10.1 (where
the network mask is 255.255.255.0) and assign it to area
2.2.2.2, enter: network 10.10.10.1 0.0.0.255 area 2.2.2.2.
If you enter the IP network mask (255.255.255.0) instead of
the wildcard mask (0.0.0.255), all OSPF interfaces that have 1
for the last octet of their IP address will be added to area
2.2.2.2.
