Ahmed,
neva thought about this type of design at all. bt i labbed it and it worked
without gre or virtual-links. The main thing to look out for is that each area
should be connected to the backbone area (Area 0). and looking at your
diagram the condition is true. only that the discontigious area 5's see each
others routes as intra-area routes.
Lab it and see for urself.
cheers,
kebram
