Scenario
In this activity, you will troubleshoot OSPF routing issues using ping and show commands to identify
errors in the network configuration. Then, you will document the errors you discover and implement
an appropriate solution. Finally, you will verify end-to-end connectivity is restored.
Troubleshooting Process
1. Use testing commands to discover connectivity problems in the network and document the
problem in the Documentation Table.
2. Use verification commands to discover the source of the problem and devise an appropriate
solution to implement. Document the proposed solution in the Documentation Table.
3. Implement each solution one at a time and verify if the problem is resolved. Indicate the
resolution status in the Documentation Table.
4. If the problem is not resolved, it may be necessary to first remove the implemented solution
before returning to Step 2.
5. Once all identified problems are resolved, test for end-to-end connectivity.

Device Identified Problem Proposed Solution Resolved?
R1 Is not forming neighborship with R3 network [Link] [Link] area 0
and replace [Link] [Link]
area 0 YES
R2 Is not propagating the default route Configure OSPF with the default-
information originate command YES
R3 Is not forming neighborship with R2 Remove the hello-interval command
on the R3 S0/0/1 interface YES
