OSPF Area Address Range Settings
Though an area can be loosely defined as a collection of networks, in actuality an area
is specified as a list of address ranges. Each address range is defined as an address
and mask pair. Many separate networks may be contained in a single address range,
just as a subnetted network is composed of many separate subnets.
To configure the address ranges in an OSPF area, select the area on the OSPF Areas
page, and then select Address Range Settings. On the OSPF Area Address Range
Settings page, select the range in the Choose an Address Range list, select the action
you want to perform from the Choose an Operation list, and then click Submit.
When you select Add Address Range or Edit Address Range, the OSPF Area
Address Range Configuration page appears:
Address
Type the IP address part of the IP address and IP mask pair. The IP address and IP
network mask pair specify the IP addresses contained in the address range. For
example, the class B address range of X.X.X.X with a network mask of 255.255.0.0
includes all IP addresses from X.X.0.0 to X.X.255.255.
Mask
Type the IP mask part of the IP address and IP mask pair.
Status
Select Advertise to have the networks contained in the address range advertised in
other areas. Select Do Not Advertise to have the networks contained in the address
range hidden from other areas.
