| question 1.
I have 4 routers running ospf (a,b,c, and d)
router A is the backbone (area 0)
router B is Area 0 and Area 51
Router C is area 51 and area 666
Router D is only area 666
Can some one tell me how to corretly use Virutal Link to connect area 666 to area 0?
question 2.
I can't figure out 2 things about Support Exam... 1. Whats passing? some say 80%?
and 2. Are there simulation questions on this exam? and if so are they the one u have to input the command?
Thanks. | |

| Router C
router ospf 100
area 51 virtual-link (router id of routerB)
Router B
router ospf 200
area 51 virtual-link (router id of routerC)
Remember Virtual links only between two ABRs.

| Hi,
I had the same issue when I was preparing for my CCIE Labs.
If the area 0 has got any type of encryption add an additional statement as "area 0 authentication XXXXX" on Router C.
If the area 666 has got any type of encryption add an additional statement as "area 666 authentication XXXXX" on Router B.
If there is no encryption on the any of the areas, better check your configuration or remove the 'router ospf xx' and insert again.
Hope this would help you.
thanks | |

| Try using the interface being used for the virtual link verses the router ID. | |

| Hi,
no harm in trying with the ip address of the interfaces but in reality only the router id would be used to form the newighbourship no matter if the neighbour is across the virtual link. |
