The network statement is only to place interfaces in the OSPF process.
It will not affect the routes that get advertised. So if you want every
interface on the router in area 0 then the command would be:
router ospf 64
net 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 area 0
Some people like to do just the interface and some like to match the
network.
Hope this helps.

Subject: router configs/OSPF - interfaces or entire networks?
I have noticed in some lab scenarios that when the instructions say that
a
router interface should be advertised in a routing protocol, the labs
sometimes advertise only the interface, othertimes an entire subnet.
For example, let's say it's an ethernet interface with address
192.168.1.1/24 being advertised under OSPF. I've seen the following:
router ospf 64
net 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 area 0
or
router ospf 64
net 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.255 area 0
I wouldn't be concerned if there were some consistency. I've seen the
lab
instructions state "interface" and then seen the entire network
advertised
and vice-versa.
Any thought?
