Hi Group

Quick question: in the lab if you have to join discontiguous area 0's
with tunnels is it better to use ip unnumbered loopback 0 (assuming
loopback 0 is in area 0) or a new IP address and add the new subnet to
area 0 as well as the loopback.

I'm asking this because in IEWB V2 Lab3, area 0 consists of the loopback
interface of each router. So a tunnel was used using ip unnumbered
loopback 0. My solution was to create a new subnet for the tunnel and
add it to area 0.

Regards

Duane
