8.
Attach the network interface to the backbone.
>> OSPF Area (index) 1 # ../if 1
>> OSPF Interface 1 # aindex 0
>> OSPF Interface 1 # enable
9.
Attach the network interface to the transit area.
>> OSPF Interface 1 # ../if 2
>> OSPF Interface 2 # aindex 1
>> OSPF Interface 2 # enable
10.
Configure the virtual link.
11.
The nbr router ID configured in this step must be the same as the router ID that will be configured for
Switch B in step 2.
>> OSPF Interface 2 # ../virt 1
>> OSPF Virtual Link 1 # aindex 1
>> OSPF Virtual Link 1 # nbr 10.10.14.1 (Specify the router ID
>> OSPF Virtual Link 1 # enable

Configuring OSPF for a virtual link on Switch B
1.
Configure IP interfaces on each network that will be attached to OSPF areas.
2.
Two IP interfaces are needed on Switch B: one for the transit area network on 10.10.12.0/24 and
one for the stub area network on 10.10.24.0/24.
>> # /cfg/l3/if 1
>> IP Interface 1 # addr 10.10.12.2
>> IP Interface 1 # mask 255.255.255.0 (Set IP mask
>> IP Interface 1 # enable
>> IP Interface 1 # ../if 2
>> IP Interface 2 # addr 10.10.24.1(Set IP address on stub area network)
>> IP Interface 2 # mask 255.255.255.0(Set IP mask on stub area network)
>> IP Interface 2 # enable
3.
Configure the router ID.
4.
A router ID is required when configuring virtual links. This router ID should be the same one specified
as the target virtual neighbor (nbr) on Switch A.
>> IP Interface 2 # /cfg/l3/rtrid 10.10.14.1(Set static router ID)
5.
Enable OSPF.
>> IP# /cfg/l3/ospf/on
6.
Define the backbone.
7.
This version of switch software requires that a backbone index be configured on the non-backbone
end of the virtual link as follows:
>> Open Shortest Path First # aindex 0(Select the menu for area index 0)
>> OSPF Area (index) 0 # areaid 0.0.0.0(Set the area ID for OSPF area 0)
>> OSPF Area (index) 0 # enable
(Select OSPF menu for IP interface 1)
(Attach network to backbone index)
(Enable the backbone interface)
(Select OSPF menu for IP interface 2)
(Attach network to transit area index)
(Enable the transit area interface)
(Specify a virtual link number)
(Specify the transit area
for the virtual link)
of the recipient)
(Enable the virtual link)
(Apply all changes)
(Save all changes)
(Select menu for IP interface 1)
(Set IP address

on transit area network)
(Enable IP interface 1)
(Select menu for IP interface 2)
(Enable IP interface 2)
(Enable the area)
