You need to be careful with this one. I have done the 501 lab and I know
that the solution is to use summary addresses. You should always try area
ranges first. I am not sure why the area ranges don't work here, I suspect
that it has something to do with the virtual link. The route is learned by
IGRP because it goes through the RIP domain. Try turning off the token ring
interfaces that have RIP running over them and see if you still get your
frame relay network in IGRP.
