area range
16-20 IPv4 Routing Protocol Configuration
Usage
If several routes (coming from different protocols) are presented to the G ‐ Series, the protocol with
the lowest administrative distance will be chosen for route installation. By default, OSPF
administrative distance is set to 110. The distance ospf command can be used to change this value,
resetting OSPF’s route preference in relation to other routes as shown in the table below.
Example
This example shows how to change the default administrative distance for external OSPF routes to
100:
G3(su)->router(Config)#router ospf 1
G3(su)->router(Config-router)#distance ospf external 100
area range
Use this command to define the range of addresses to be used by Area Border Routers (ABRs)
when they communicate routes to other areas. Each G ‐ Series can support up to 4 OSPF areas. The
no form of this command stops the routes from being summarized.
Syntax
area area-id range ip-address ip-mask [ advertise | no-advertise ]
no area area-id range ip-address ip-mask
