ospf virtual interfaces and non-backbone connected areas

Hi all,

On www.fatkid.com their is an Expert Redistribution lab #502. The topology
has the area backbone on the token ring interface of a
router. The same router is connected to an X.25 cloud of 3 routers. The
X.25 cloud is area 4. One of the spoke routers has an ethernet
on which another area resides- area 2. The lab instructions say to make
sure that complete ospf connectivity
occurs but do not use virtual interfaces to accomplish this.

I am assuming that virtual interfaces means virtual links? So how else can
you connect a non-backbone connected area
to the backbone if you do not use a virtual link?

Thanks in advance,

Julie Ann
