get router ospf

This example shows how to display the OSPF configuration.

show router ospf

config area

Access the config area subcommand using the config router ospf

command. Use this command to set OSPF area related parameters.

Routers in an OSPF autonomous system (AS) or routing domain are organized into
logical groupings called areas. Areas are linked together by area border routers
(ABRs). There must be a backbone area that all areas can connect to. You can use a
virtual link to connect areas that do not have a physical connection to the backbone.
Routers within an OSPF area maintain link state databases for their own areas.
