Configuring gated

You can define various characteristics for an area and interfaces. The
following sections describe the configuration statements that you can use
in defining an area.

The

networks

statement defines the address ranges that forms an OSPF

area. This definition applies only to area border routers, where multiple
areas are specified, and is required only if you need to compress a
number of subnets using a network mask.

A network address followed by a hexadecimal bit mask specifies an IP
address range in the

network

 statement. For example, the following

address range begins with the network address 193.2.1.16 and includes
the first 15 addresses in that network (193.2.1.17 through 193.2.1.31):

193.2.1.16 mask 0xfffffff0

You can specify many separate networks in an address range. Area
border routers advertise a single route for each address range.

Figure 3-5 shows an example of a router that is connected to area 0.0.0.1
through the interface 193.2.1.33. The attached network consists of
addresses 193.2.1.33 through 193.2.1.47. The other network in the area
consists of addresses 193.2.1.17 through 193.2.1.31.
