Mostly for the static IP customer case, and to automate as much routing as
possible and cut down on the number of static routes needed.

Ok...I'm playing around with OSPF on the WAN links now. I've cut away most
of the picture to "zoom in" on what I'm having trouble with. RTA is in area
0 with an ethernet segment full of routers in area 0. RTA connects to RTB
via a PTP T1 link. RTB has an ethernet interface talking to a few routers in
area 1.
#RTA
interface FastEthernet0/0
ip address 209.212.128.1 255.255.255.0
no ip directed-broadcast
!
interface Serial2/3
ip address 209.212.144.33 255.255.255.252
encapsulation ppp
no fair-queue
router ospf 1
redistribute static subnets
[passive-interface Serial1/0-3, Serial2/0-2]
network 209.212.128.0 0.0.0.255 area 0
network 209.212.144.33 0.0.0.0 area 1
#RTB
interface Ethernet0
ip address 209.212.145.1 255.255.255.192

ip address 209.212.144.34 255.255.255.252

ip route 209.212.145.0 255.255.255.0 Null0 250
I kind of expected RTB to tell RTA about 209.212.145/24 via OSPF, but it
doesn't. RTB does tell other OSPF speakers in area 1 about 209.212.145/24.
What have I missed?
