Guys,

My scenario is this.

R1 s0 - Area 0 (192.168.1.0/24) - s0 R2 e0 - Area 5 (192.168.8.0/24) -
e0 R3 s0 - area 5 (192.168.9.0/24) - S0 R4 E0 - area 7 (10.1.1.0/24)

My config on R2 (ABR) is:

router ospf 1
router-id 150.50.2.2
net 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 area 0
net 192.168.8.0 0.0.0.255 area 5
area 5 virtual-link 150.50.4.4
area 5 range 192.168.8.0 255.255.254.0

I am summarizing area 5 networks on R2 (ABR). On R1 I see route for
both the summarized range 192.168.8.0/23 and the more specific
networks 192.168.8.0/24 & 192.168.9.0/24.

I thought the summarized subnets should be suppressed and that's not
happening. Am I missing something here :)

TIA,
Sundar Palaniappan
