area range

Description: 

Aggregates the routes at an area boundary. By default, the range of configured networks is advertised in type 3 (summary) LSAs. The no version disables this function.

Syntax: 

For OSPFv2:

[ no ] area { areaId | areaIdInt } range ipAddress mask [ do-not-advertise ]

For OSPFV3:

[ no ] area { areaId | areaIdInt } range ipv6Prefix/ipv6PrefixLength
[ do-not-advertise | advertise | cost costValue ]

• areaId—OSPF area ID in IP address format
• areaIdInt—OSPF area ID as a decimal value in the range 0-4294967295
• ipAddress—IP address to match
• mask—IP address mask
• ipv6Prefix—IPv6 network number to match
• ipv6PrefixLength—Length of the IPv6 prefix; a decimal value that indicates how many of the higher-order contiguous bits of the IPv6 address comprise the prefix (the network portion of the IPv6 address). A slash (/) must precede this value.
• do-not-advertise—Specifies that the range of configured networks is not advertised
• advertise—Specifies that the range of configured networks is advertised (IPv6 only)
• costValue—Defines the cost value (0 - 16777215) for the specified range of networks (IPv6 only)
