Not having interfaces or neighbors in an area can make an area inactive.
Sometimes when I don't get enough coffee in the morning I become
inactive myself ;-)

Subject: What does "Area BACKBONE(0) (Inactive)" mean?
when i "show ip ospf",i got the following ,
Area BACKBONE(0) (Inactive)
Number of interfaces in this area is 0
Area has message digest authentication
SPF algorithm executed 1 times
Area ranges are
Number of LSA 0. Checksum Sum 0x0
Number of opaque link LSA 0. Checksum Sum 0x0
Number of DCbitless LSA 0
Number of indication LSA 0
Number of DoNotAge LSA 0
Flood list length 0
even in another scenario ,one router has an int in
area 0,
i got
Area BACKBONE(0) (Inactive)
Number of interfaces in this area is 1
so what does "inactive"mean?
Thanks
