>>Dear group,

>>I have a question about Solie's book P.791.
>>
>>On the 2nd paragraph from the top, it saids:
>>"You cannot summarize Area 0 or the backbone area. All summaries are
>>flooded into area 0 and then are flooded out from that point. Therefore
>>Area 0 routes cannot be summarized"
>>
>>However, in the scenario such as below:
>>
>> R4
>> |s0
>> |
>> --s0.1---| R1---|e0
>>|e0-R3< /
>> --s0.2---------<
>> \
>> R2---|e0

>>- R2e0 area 2 (/24)
>>- R3e0 being area 3 (/24 or whatever)
>>- R3 s0.1 and R4 running igrp (/24)
>>
>>Isn't it easy (and convenient) to create a /24 summary route by "area 0

>>I did they before since the redis connected/summary ASBR method doesn't

>>
>>Solie P.791 makes me confused. Can someone clarifies if this "area 0

>>
>>Or just like someone saids, tunnel method, sec interface method? or even

>>Thanks a lot.
