Section 9 – Configuring OSPF

Lab 9-1Configuring Basic OSPF
In this lab you will learn how to configure the backbone area (Area 0) of Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) to build the backbone foundation of an OSPF network.

Lab 9-2Configuring OSPF Priority
In this lab you will learn how to configure the backbone area (Area 0) of Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) to build the backbone foundation of an OSPF network.

Lab 9-3Configuring OSPF Network Types
In this lab you will learn how to configure different Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) interface network types to ensure OSPF operation over different layer two technologies.


Lab 9-4Configuring OSPF Static Neighbors
In this lab you will learn how to configure Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) static neighbors to induce neighbor relationships on a non-broadcast network such as frame relay.

Lab 9-5Configuring Multi-Area OSPF
In this lab you will learn how to configure multiple OSPF areas to segregate the routed network in a hierarchical structure to ease management and conserve router resources.

Lab 9-6Configuring The OSPF Router-ID
In this lab you will learn how to configure an Open Shortest Path First Router-ID (RID) on a Cisco router which is used to uniquely identify an OSPF router in an autonomous system.

Lab 9-7Configuring OSPF Timers
In this lab you will learn how to configure the Open Shortest Path First Hello and Dead timers to ensure OSPF network type interoperability and/or increase network convergence time.

Lab 9-8Configuring Per Interface OSPF
In this lab you will learn how to configure Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) on a per interface basis without the use of the network statement in OSPF router configuration mode.

Lab 9-9Configuring OSPF Stub Areas
In this lab you will learn how to configure the different types of Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) Stub areas to conserve router resources and ease network management.


Lab 9-10Configuring OSPF Interface Cost
In this lab you will learn how to configure manipulate Open Shortest Path First route metrics by statically configuring the OSPF interface cost.

Lab 9-11Configuring OSPF Auto Cost Reference Bandwidth
In this lab you will learn how to configure the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) auto cost reference bandwidth used to dynamically generate an OSPF route metric.

Lab 9-12Configuring OSPF Passive Interface
In this lab you will learn how to configure an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) passive interface to prevent OSPF from forming neighbor relationships on an OSPF enabled interface.

Lab 9-13Configuring OSPF Maximum Paths
In this lab you will learn how to configure an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) passive interface to prevent OSPF from forming neighbor relationships on an OSPF enabled interface.

Lab 9-14Configuring OSPF Route Summarization
In this lab you will learn how to configure an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) Inter-Area route summary on an ABR to advertise upstream neighbors as a single route prefix.

Lab 9-15Configuring OSPF Default Route Propagation
In this lab you will learn how to configure Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) to advertise a default route through out the entire OSPF autonomous system.
