Re: advertising networks in ospf

Hi Rakesh,

Technically there is no difference between interface level command or
network command to advertise a network, but for CCIE lab it may make
difference some times Lab ask you to enable routing on specific
interface which may be convenient by using interface level command.
some times for time saving purpose we can use network command for
example if we need to run ospf on internal router then we can use "
network 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 area " command to encompass all
interfaces of the router which can save couple of minute.

Thanks and Regards,
Dave
