OSPF has this feature of advertising spoke networks via the hub. So
each spoke will see a /32 to another spoke via the hub in a P2MP
network type. This will not happen if you use the broadcast network
type on the same topology, then you need the underlying protocol (for
example frame-relay) to arrange the spoke-to-spoke connectivity

Hi All,
One quick question.With P2P network type Router LSA will
have 2 links(1 p2p and other stub network with network mask).For
P2MP we too have 2 links but stub link now has /32 mask.Can some one
clarify theory behind this?
Thanks,
