RE: Route Filtering in OSPF

Hi,

You say that Area 1 can't be changed into a stub or nssa because of the need
for virtual link. However you need to filter off LSA 5's.

The easiest method of resolving this problem is to make Area 1 either stub
or NSSA (depending upon LSA7 restriction) and then think of a method of
providing a virtual link - without using the OSPF virtual link command. This
can be done

thanks for your response.

But I find that, in r3, the the next hop to reach external route is
r2-e1. it is direct-connected route.

Since area 1 contains Virtual-link, I can't convert it into stub area
(such that it will deny external route automatically).

I found that distance command can prevent/filter some routes to enter
the route table.
