Objective
Utilize a systematic troubleshooting method on an OSPF network.
Scenario
Your company has implemented OSPF as its core routing protocol. All inter-
faces on the Westasman router belong to OSPF area 0. The Frankfurt and
Berlin routers connect the company’s core to legacy RIP networks that will
eventually be migrated to OSPF, but must continue to use RIP until older
routers are replaced. (The RIP networks, which include many of the company’s
routers, are represented in this lab scenario by Ethernet and Loopback inter-
faces on the Frankfurt and Berlin routers.)
After the partial change to OSPF, users connected to the Westasman router
report that they are unable to communicate with users connected to Frankfurt
and Berlin. Your task is to troubleshoot and correct this problem.
Lab Tasks
Build the network according to the diagram above and load the appropriate
‘broken’ configuration files to each router. Save the configurations and reload
each router. Clock rates have been applied to all serial interfaces.

Confirm connectivity by performing pings between routers. All pings should be
successful.
Step 1
Define the problem you are experiencing.
Users connected to the Westasman router report that they are unable to com-
municate with any servers connected to the Berlin and Frankfurt routers. You
already verified that it is not a workstation issue.
Step 2
Gather relevant facts about the situation. Upon examining the router, what fac-
tual information can you obtain from the router?
Login to the Westasman router and perform basic connectivity tests.
Ping the WAN interface of Berlin.
Westasman#ping 192.168.10.13
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.10.13, timeout is 2 seconds:

Ping the LAN interface of Berlin.

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.0.1.1, timeout is 2 seconds:

Ping the WAN interface of Frankfurt.
Westasman#ping 192.168.10.6
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.10.6, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 32/32/36 ms
Ping the LAN interface of Frankfurt.
Westasman#ping 10.0.4.1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.0.4.1, timeout is 2 seconds:
Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)
Examine the routing table of Westasman.

Notice there are no routes to any of the RIP networks.
Step 3
Consider the possibilities. Use the information you have and your knowledge of
Cisco products to isolate the problem.
Based on the information you gathered so far, the problem seems to be within
the routing protocol. RIP may not be redistributing into OSPF.
Step 4
Formulate an action plan to solve this problem.
Gather more information about neighboring routers. Check if redistribution is
setup properly. Modify configurations as necessary.
Step 5
Implement your action plan and attempt to fix the problem. Log all changes
made.
Examine the interfaces and routing tables of neighboring routers.

Notice that none of the remote RIP networks are populating the OSPF data-
bases.
The “subnets” keyword tells OSPF to redistribute all subnet routes. Without the
subnets keyword, only networks that are not subnetted will be redistributed by
OSPF; that is why none of the RIP networks are being properly redistributed.
Issue the following commands on Berlin and Frankfurt to resolve this issue.
