​​Summary:

1. Turn off ospf on all routers and configure basic IP addresses

 

2. Configure all routers to operate in a multiarea configuration. 

      -Tie, Belt, and Scok will act as ABRs

      -Add 5 loopback interfaces to Ring, Hat, and Shoe to

       simulate real ospf networks. They should be contiguous to

       existing area subnets
