In this task's solution, the Loopback of Cat2 is added to OSPF area 0: SW2
router osp 1 network 148.48.102.102 0.0.0.0 area 0 network 148.48.7.102 0.0.0.0 area 0 But there is no requirement to do so! Moreover, in Task 3.6 we are asked to add this Loopback to EIGRP 24! SW2 router eigrp 24 no auto net 148.48.102.102 0.0.0.0 I guess it doesn't hurt to add this Loopback to both processes, does it? But the main question is, why was it added to OSPF when it wasn't required ??? Was it added by mistake? Or is it necessary for some reason that I do not see? Could you please explain?

I think it will be apparent if you needed to use it. On Sun, Jun 14, 2009 at 1:49 PM, Meraz, Richard <[email protected]> wrote: The task states: “Area 27 should be configured as a stub area. Type 7 LSA should be permitted in Are 27.” R2 is the ABR. Based on that requirement would both of the following be considered correct on R2 area 27 nssa no-summary Or area 27 nssa default-information-originate The PG had the latter as correct. Is the no-summary option invalid since the question says should be a stub area (instead of a totally not-so-stubby area), or would both options be acceptable? Paranoia is consuming me!
