This command sets the OSPF area to which the specified router interface or range of interfaces belongs. It also enables OSPF on the specified router interface or range of interfaces. The area is a 32-bit integer, formatted as a 4-digit dotted- decimal number or a decimal value in the range of 0-4294967295. The area uniquely identifies the area to which the interface connects. Assigning an area ID for an area that does not yet exist, causes the area to be created with default values.
