The IP address to which packets for this multi-area interface should be sent. On point-to-point interfaces there is no need to configure the remote address to send packets to since packets are sent to the AllSPFRouters address. In this case this field should be set to 0.0.0.0. If this field is set to a non-zero value on a point-to-point interface then the multi-area interface will not go operationally up to prevent mis-configuration. For all other underlying interface types this should be set to the address the neighbor is using as its IP Source Address. In this case if this field is is set to 0.0.0.0 the multi-area interface will not go operationally up as DC-OSPF will not know where to send packets to.
