Interesting observation...

summary address is typically on the ASBR and area range on ABR and to the
best
of my understanding,you can place summary address where you want,but its
gonna
work only on the ASBR..Some info on this link..

anyone else can comment on why this should be on the ABR ?

Thanks.

Cheers,Padhu

Hi,

A question for those using cciebootcamp labs. I am
practising Task 3 on lab 4.

Question number (8) stated to "Summarize the routes
for R7's E0,E1 and S4 that were redistributed into
OSPF by R6 on R5 so that all of R7's networks appear
as one route to the rest of the OSPF routers except
R6"

Since R5 is a ABR, I used the command "area 4 range
11.0.0.0 255.0.0.0" on R5. But this command did not do
the job as required. I need to use the command
"summary-address 11.0.0.0 255.0.0.0" in order for the
summarized address to be advertised to the rest of the
OSPF routers.

I checked through the answers given, it also have the
command "summary-address 11.0.0.0 255.0.0.0" in R5. Is
that correct ? I thought for ABR, the "area 4 range
11.0.0.0 255.0.0.0" should do the job.

Thanks in advance.

Loh
