Single Area OSPF tutorial
In this lab we will show how to build a Single Area OSPF network on Cisco routers by using GNS3. Our topology will consist of 3 3700 routers and one ethernet switch to get a multi access network. Below is presented the topology. How is shown in the picture we have a LAN between R1, R2, R3 and a Serial link between R3 and R4. (Watch the video)
