When we configure OSPF we should always start with area 0 and build outwards. So what better place to start out config work than with a point-to-point, two router configuration that will show you the LSA’s and a breakdown of what they mean from a wireshark trace.
In this lesson we utilise the fabulous eve-ng for your virtual environment. You can opt for either the community or professional version.
If you want the professional version, which we are using, it is highly recommended and good value for the price and offers great extras.
You will also require a virtual environment for eve-ng. We are utilising vmWare Workstation Pro for our installation.
