I've prepared a network via Cisco Modeling Labs for a demonstration. Let me start with the router RA0. The interfaces have already been configured with ip addresses, so all that is left for us is the ospf configuration. As with any routing protocols, we start first by going to the global configuration mode. For that I'll just type in conf t after which we then need to type the command router space ospf space process ID.
