Take a look at this link for your first question, it looks like the ppp multilink load-threshold does exactly the same thing as dialer load threshold, according to the link you pretty much configure one or the other.
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fdia l_r/drfmupp.htm#xtocid48 As to your second question, let's say you have one interface that you want to be in OSPF, and you want to specify it explicitly, you would use the network 180.4.4.4 0.0.0.0 area 0 command. It is very similar to applying the host keyword in an access list, only the interface that carries that single IP address will send out hello's and be available to form adjacencies. On the other hand, let's say you have a large number of wan links and you use the 180.4.4.0/24 broken down into /30's for your wan link IP addressing. If you want every interface to be in ospf, you can specify network 180.4.4.0 0.0.0.255 area 0, and that is like an access list allowing an entire /24, this means any interface that has an IP address in the 180.4.4.0/24 range will send out hello's and be available to form adjacencies. As far as which one to use, it could be argued that you should specify each interface seperately with the 0.0.0.0 wildcard, because that way you are explicitly defining each interface that you want to run OSPF. If you have a large number of interfaces that can make your config quite large. You could also use passive-interface default, specify the entire /24, and then enable each interface that you actually want to run OSPF. There are a few options, and it is really a matter of preference, some of the design guru's have posted on this before, you may want to search the archives. ~-----Original Message----- ~From: William Lijewski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] ~Sent: Saturday, April 27, 2002 10:22 AM ~To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~Subject: 2 questions I'm confused about [7:42739] ~ ~ ~Hello all, ~ ~I have 2 quick topics I could use some clarification on: ~ ~1) There is a new command for 12.2 called ~ ~PPP MULTILINK LOAD-THRESHOLD ~ ~What is the difference between this command and DIALER ~LOAD-THRESHOLD, and ~when would I use one over the other? ~ ~2) In OSPF you can advertise the newtworks in 2 ways: ~ ~network 180.4.4.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 ~ ~or ~ ~network 180.4.4.4 0.0.0.0 area 0 ~ ~What is the advantage of advertising just the specific ~interface, is there ~really a difference between the two? ~ ~Thanks in advance. ~ ~ ~Report misconduct ~and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=42745&t=42739 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
