Hi Brian,

Thanks for help. I don't have the configs as I moved on to another lab
however could you comment on the structure of ospf database. if i see under
the asbr summary for Area 0 everything is ok but under the ASBR summary for
Area 13 it says Adv Router is not-reachable
what does that mean. Is it that the particular link state is not reachable
through area 13. Why are there 2 entries under the area 13 but only 1 under
area 0. thanks

Summary ASB Link States (Area 0)
