Did you get my response to your original post? The route on r2 is a E2 route so it is not intra-area, but a externally learned route so different rules come into play. With external routes, there is a forwarding address (next-hop value) of the lowest cost route to that destination. Look at the RFC again - pages 23-25 or so, the section dealing with external routes. They explain it there well and have an example. --- Jaeheon Yoo wrote: > Hi, all > According to rfc2328. p.175, when we have multiple > intra-area paths to > ASBR,a intra-area path using non-backbone area > should be chosen over > one using backbone area. > But I always have opposite result. doesn't Cisco's > implementation yet > conform to rfc2328 in this respect? > > Here's from my cisco 2501 router. > > r2#sh ip ospf data > -------------------------------------------------omitted > Type-5 AS External Link States > > Link ID ADV Router Age Seq# > Checksum Tag > 131.108.0.0 192.168.40.3 324 > 0x80000003 0xE930 0 > r2# > r2#sh ip ospf border > > OSPF Process 10 internal Routing Table > > Codes: i - Intra-area route, I - Inter-area route > > i 192.168.40.3 [74] via 172.16.2.2, Serial0, > ABR/ASBR, Area 0, SPF 7 > i 192.168.40.3 [1562] via 172.16.30.33, Serial1, > ABR/ASBR, Area 6, SPF > 5 > > r2#sh ip route > -----------------omitted > O E2 131.108.0.0/16 [110/20] via 172.16.2.2, > 00:03:38, Serial0 > r2# > > Could somebody explain this to me? > Thanks in advance. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
