manually added to the router for CTC computers on LAN A to communicate with Nodes 2 and 3 because
these nodes reside on different subnets.
OSPF divides networks into smaller regions, called areas. An area is a collection of networked end
systems, routers, and transmission facilities organized by traffic patterns. Each OSPF area has a unique
ID number, known as the area ID. Every OSPF network has one backbone area called "area 0." All other
OSPF areas must connect to area 0.
When you enable an ONS 15454 OSPF topology for advertising to an OSPF network, you must assign
an OSPF area ID in decimal format to the ONS 15454 network. An area ID is a "dotted quad" value that
appears similar to an IP address. Coordinate the area ID number assignment with your LAN
administrator. All DCC-connected ONS 15454s should be assigned the same OSPF area ID.
It is recommended that the number of ONS 15454s in an OSPF area be limited, because this allows faster

loading into a CTC an is less likely to incur any problems.
