RE: The Subnet

When you specify a wildcard you are specifying how many bits in the address to check.

For instance 142.52.126.1 0.0.0.3 would not check the last 3 bits of the Octet. In this case it would check the first 3 octets to see if they match, then it would check the first 5 bits in the last octet, leaving the last 3 bits unchecked.

I hope this helps.

When you specify the wildcard 0.0.0.0 you are just enabling ospf on an
interface with the address 10.10.10.1 only,

versus

0.0.0.255 means that the whole last octed will be able to run ospf. The
good example will be, if you have a router with three serial interfaces.
All the subnets are derived from 10.10.10.0/30, so 10.10.10.0,
10.10.10.4,10.10.10.8 and so on. Now you want to run ospf.

You could do either

router ospf 1
network 10.10.10.1 0.0.0.0 area 0
network 10.10.10.5 0.0.0.0 area 0
network 10.10.10.9 0.0.0.0 area 0

or just simply

network 10.10.10.0 0.0.0.255 area 0
