So in the Advanced OSPF Filtering and Configurations VOD, Joe is asked to configure OSPF w/o the "network" statement so it's done on a per interface basis. Makes sense. Next, he has to manipulate the timers on VLAN 567. Also he has to used dotted decimal notation for the area ID. So the result is:
R7 Int lo0 Ip ospf 1 area 0.0.2.55 Int fa0/0 Ip ospf 1 area 0.0.2.55 Ip ospf dead-interval minimal hello-multiplier 5 This all makes sense. But where I'm confused is why the timers aren't also adjusted on the lo0. If the Lo0 IP is used for the RID in OSPF, is that ONLY as a numerical reference? Nothing to do with the actual forming of adjacencies? So the interface doing the adjacencies on 567 is the only interface that actually needs the timers adjusted? I guess this makes sense I'm just stumbling on it. Am I off on this? --Hammer "I was a normal American nerd." -Jack Herer
