I have created a mock lab, and think I have the solution but want to see what
you guys think. The scenario is I have R2, R4 and R6 in an OSPF broadcast setup
over FR. R2 is the DR, 4 & 6 priority 0. They are in area 0.
Now then I decided to put R2, R3, and R4 (over Ethernet) into area 0 but made
R3 the DR for that area 0 and setting the priority's on the R2 and R4 links to
0 to to see what would happen. Of course started getting a whole bunch of
errors.
So basically R2 had two area 0's but was only DR for one of them.
So the only solution I could come up with was to use different OSPF processes.
Is there another way to get around the DR fighting? Using tunnels and virtual
links maybe?
