OSPF on Packet Tracer

We are going to apply OSPF(open shortest path first) protocol on packet tracer. Let us take the following simple topology.

1

Now, let us apply the ospf on it. But before that, as usual :) , let us assign IP addresses and change the state of interfaces.

3
Similarly for the other router.



 4
Assigning the IP addresses to PCs as follows.

 5
 6

Now, as we can see, interfaces are up but the communication is not enabled because we have not applied the protocol yet.

 7
Lets do it.

 8
On router 1.

 9
After applying protocol successfully , the traffic is flowing . Couple of things worth discussing
i. you will have to provide area id and process id on ospf protocol.
ii. you will have to provide wildcard mask on ospf.
