Also, do not support broadcast on this link. *********************************************************************** *Mar sh run | b 1/2 interface Serial1/2 ip address 180.40.7.2 255.255.255.224 encapsulation frame-relay ip ospf network point-to-multipoint non-broadcast clock rate 64000 frame-relay map ip 180.40.7.3 23 ! router ospf 1 router-id 2.2.2.2 log-adjacency-changes auto-cost reference-bandwidth 1000 area 0 authentication message-digest area 51 nssa no-redistribution no-summary area 51 default-cost 0 area 200 virtual-link 3.3.3.3 message-digest-key 1 md5 notcisco redistribute connected subnets tag 2 network 180.40.7.2 0.0.0.0 area 200 network 180.40.7.65 0.0.0.0 area 0 network 202.2.2.2 0.0.0.0 area 51 network 208.28.1.3 0.0.0.0 area 200 network 208.28.1.129 0.0.0.0 area 51 neighbor 180.40.7.3 cost 100 !
