That sparks a question that I have. So if they said... put the loopback 0 in
ospf area 0. Could I just put it in a different process? I mean as long as
it's reachable in the end... that's all that matters... right?

This a is a debate that some of my friends have. They say don't do anything
extra, because you'll be marked down. My arguement is, that is didn't say I
couldn't do that. Plus, it makes the lab easier when you split these things
up.

What's your opinion?

thanks,

Dan.
