Abstract

The OSPF specification requires that intra-area paths are always preferred over inter-area paths, regardless of the path's cost. In some situations this can lead to an inefficient usage of network resources. This document describes a solution that helps to address this problem by creating adjacencies through backbone area that belong to non-backbone areas.
