Description of problem: The OSPF command "ip ospf area AREANUMBER", that allows an OSPF interface to be assigned to a *specific* area, is not available (despite being advertised in Quagga's official documentation). http://www.nongnu.org/quagga/docs/docs-multi/OSPF-interface.html#OSPF-interface Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): quagga-0.99.22.4-4.el7.x86_64 (CentOS 7.x as of September 3rd, 2017) How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install quagga package from the official repositories. 2. Enable zebra and ospf daemons 3. Launch vtysh, to obtain a Cisco-like CLI 4. Do "conf t", then "interface SOMEINTERFACE" 5. Check "ip ospf" sub commands Actual results: There is no "ip ospf area AREANUMBER" command available, limiting configuration options. Expected results: "ip ospf area AREANUMBER" command should be available, as documented here http://www.nongnu.org/quagga/docs/docs-multi/OSPF-interface.html#OSPF-interface Please update the quagga package to latest features, as advertised.

The Quagga RPM package included in current Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.x and CentOS 7.x is VERY old; the solution of the above bug (missing command) seems to be simply to include a newer version. For comparison: - Current stable Quagga is 1.2.1 (http://savannah.nongnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=8811) - Quagga RPM package included in RHEL/CentOS 7.x is quagga-0.99.22.4-4.el7 - Quagga RPM package included in Fedora 26 is quagga-1.2.1-1.fc26 - Quagga package included in Debian (stable) 9.x is quagga-1.1.1 So please release a newer Quagga package in RHEL/CentOS. Thank you! Răzvan
