Lab 3 Packet Tracer - Configure OSPF Advanced Features

This document describes configuring and testing OSPF routing on a network. It instructs the user to modify OSPF settings by changing hello and dead timers between routers R1 and R2, and adjusting the bandwidth setting on R1's serial interface. This causes the OSPF connection between R1 and R2 to fail initially, but connectivity is restored once timers match on both routers. Adjusting R1's bandwidth also changes the preferred path from PC1 to the web server. The user is asked to verify connectivity between all devices after completing these steps.

Objectives
Part 1: Modify OSPF Default Settings
Part 2: Verify Connectivity

Scenario
In this activity, OSPF is already configured and all end devices currently have full
connectivity. You will modify the default OSPF routing configurations by changing the hello
and dead timers and adjusting the bandwidth of a link. Then you will verify that full
connectivity is restored for all end devices.

Instructions

Part 1: Modify OSPF Default Settings


Step 1: Test connectivity between all end devices.
Before modifying the OSPF settings, verify that all PCs can ping the web server and each
other.
Step 2: Adjust the hello and dead timers between R1 and R2.
a.     Enter the following commands on R1.
R1(config)# interface s0/0/0
R1(config-if)# ip ospf hello-interval 15
R1(config-if)# ip ospf dead-interval 60
b.     After a short period of time, the OSPF connection with R2 will fail. Both sides of the
connection need to have the same timers for the adjacency to be maintained. Adjust the
timers on R2.

Step 3: Adjust the bandwidth setting on R1.


a. Trace the path between PC1 and the web server located at 64.100.1.2. Notice that the
path from PC1 to 64.100.1.2 is routed through R2. OSPF prefers the lower cost path.
b.     On the R1 Serial 0/0/0 interface, set the bandwidth to 64 Kb/s. This does not change the
actual port speed, only the metric that the OSPF process on R1 will use to calculate best
routes.
R1(config-if)# bandwidth 64
b. Trace the path between PC1 and the web server located at 64.100.1.2. Notice that the
path from PC1 to 64.100.1.2 is redirected through R3. OSPF prefers the lower cost path.

Part 2: Verify Connectivity


Verify all PCs can ping the web server and each other.
