We have 3 sites areas 0, 1 & 2 in a point-to-point L2 mesh, separate vc for each.
In area 0 and 1 the p2ps terminate at L3 on ASAs In area 2 on a router
At area 0 I have put the L3 interfaces terminating each vc, in the remote area, i.e. areas 1 and 2 and ospf is working (except the area command doesn't seem to be having an affect). However, I don't know how to decide which area to put the L3 interfaces that terminate the p2ps between areas 1 and 2. And I'm curious if there's any advice for the setup that would limit the need to filter broadcasted routes. i.e. I don't want areas broadcasting routes that take the closest area hop.
Thanks
