5. Define the transit area.
The area that contains the virtual link must be configured as a transit area.
6. Attach the network interface to the backbone.
7. Attach the network interface to the transit area.
8. Configure the virtual link.
The nbr router ID configured in this step must be the same as the router ID that
will be configured for Switch #2 in Step 2 on page 275.
Configuring OSPF for a Virtual Link on Switch #2
1. Configure IP interfaces on each network that will be attached to OSPF areas.
In this example, two IP interfaces are needed:
– Interface 1 for the transit area network on 10.10.12.0/24
– Interface 2 for the stub area network on 10.10.24.0/24
