Hi,

Change the network type to point-to-point it asked that the networks should
show up with the actual mask. By default, the Loopback networks are treated as
stub networks and advertised with a /32 network in OSPF. You would not have to
worry about it on this exam, as the routing sections should be
pre-configured.Khawar B. CCIE # 12353 (R/S, Security, SP)
