UMGC – Fall 2021 CMIT-456 CCNP ENARSI v8 Packet Tracer Tutorial 6.2.1: Configure Multiarea OSPFv2
In this video tutorial, prepared for my UMGC CMIT-456 (Cisco Networking Academy ENARSI v8 curriculum) course, we take our first look at multiarea OSPFv2. We go over the semantics of the Area Border Router (ABR), the LSA types, we look into the OSPF link-state database, we discuss why OSPF ‘behaves’ like a Distance Vector (DV) routing protocol when there are multiple areas, and answer all of the activity questions. Enjoy!
***This video is an in-depth tutorial and is far more than simply an answer key to the aforementioned Packet Tracer activity. This tutorial is being made to assist my UMGC CMIT-456 learners in their journey through the ENARSI v8 course curriculum material so, if you are just looking for a shortcut or easy answers for the activity, this is not the video you should watch. However, if you are looking to gain a deeper understanding regarding topics like DHCP for IPv4 and inter-VLAN routing configuration and design, my hope is that this will increase your comprehension and help you to become a better and more effective network engineer. Enjoy!
*This techtorial/Packet Tracer activity is all done running Cisco Modeling Labs (CML) v2.1.1-b19, some physical routers in my Evil Command Center Lab, and/or Packet Tracer version 8.0 (for the Mac) which was just recently released! The MINIMUM version you can use for any of the new CCNP v8 curriculum activities is Packet Tracer v8.x! Be sure to leave your feedback and questions below and I hope I have earned the privilege of your time!
