OSPF

OSPF Area 0 is a backbone area. Other Area must connect to Area 0.
Virtual link use for connect to Area 0 pass from other area.
When middle area is stub area we can use GRE tunnel.

OSPF Traffic Types

Three types of traffic may be defined in relation to areas: Intra-area traffic consists of packets that are passed between routers within a single area. Inter-area traffic consists of packets that are passed between routers in different areas. External traffic consists of packets that are passed between a router within the OSPF domain and a router within another routing domain. Area ID 0 (or 0.0.0.0) is reserved for the backbone. The backbone is responsible for summarizing the topologies of each area to every other area. For this reason, all inter-area traffic must pass through the backbone; non-backbone areas cannot exchange packets directly. Ref: Routing TCP/IP volume 1
