Usage An OSPF network can be divided into sub-domains called areas. An area is a logical collection of OSPF networks, routers, and links that have the same area identification.. A router within an area must maintain a topological database for the area to which it belongs. The router doesn't have detailed information about network topology outside of its area, thereby reducing the size of its database.
Areas limit the scope of route information distribution. It is not possible to perform route update filtering within an area. The link-state database (LSDB) of routers within the same area must be synchronized, and be exactly the same. However, route summarization, and filtering is possible between different areas. The main benefit of creating areas is a reduction in the number of routes to propagate through the filtering, and the summarization of routes.
Examples To remove an OSPF area, 0, use the following syntax:
CLI (network-admin@switch) > vrouter-ospf-area-remove vrouter-name vrouter-ospf area 0
