When using OSPF how do you keep the anti-spoofing working properly?  If
the routes are dynamically being learned internally, how does the
spoofing configuration of the interface get updated?  Do you need to
update the topology on the gateway object frequently?  Is it done
automatically?

We use OSPF on SPLAT (UTM-1 500's) to route inter-office traffic over a
dedicated circuit, with fallback to Internet routing if the circuit
fails.  We've found this configuration to work well for us, no hiccups
or stability problems that we've noticed...  Though we also don't
monitor it too closely, either.  But, since our configuration is
probably much simpler and different from yours, I'm not sure it's a good
data point to help you.

Keep in mind that you need a SPLAT Pro license per gateway (meaning a
cluster of two gateways needs two licenses) in order to run routing
protocols like OSPF and RIP.

Fortunately those licenses are not too expensive.  Compared to the other
hardware/software costs, that is.
