To modify an OSPF interface using the CLI, enter the following

>(configure router ospf)# network <ip-address>

<wildcard-mask><area-id>

* Note: If you use the network area CLI command to add an

interface to an OSPF area, be careful not to enter the IP

mask for the <wildcard-mask> variable.

The <wildcard-mask> variable is the inverse of a network

mask. Enter a 32-bit number in four-part, dotted

decimal format. Place ones in the bit positions that you

to area 2.2.2.2, enter:

network 10.10.10.1 0.0.0.255 area 2.2.2.2

If you enter the IP network mask (255.255.255.0)

instead of the wildcard mask (0.0.0.255), all OSPF

interfaces that have 1 for the last octet of their IP address

will be added to area 2.2.2.2.
