Hi Jay, This question is probably best posed to the zebra mailing list. You can register for that here: http://www.zebra.org/mailing.html.
You did not say what version of ospfd you are using but I would definitely recommend getting at least the latest standard release, zebra-0.93b. If you want to build your own package the tarball is located here: ftp://ftp.zebra.org/pub/zebra/. You can also try the most recent tarball put together by Paul Jakma. It includes a whole bunch of patches that have yet to be accepted into the standard zebra distribution. (They are notoriously slow about integrating any new patches.) The only warning about this is apparently one of the patches Paul uses breaks IPv6 in zebra. For IPv4 it seems to be well tested and resolves a number of ospf problems. Once again, if you want to build your own package you can find his tarball here: http://people.ie.alphyra.com/~paulj/zebra/20021111/. As a note: The Paul Jakma release is more than likely what I am going to use for my next set of packages specifically because of all the ospf bug fixes that it has. The only reason that I have not moved to this already is I have not had the time to verify whether the "vanMaarseveen_patch" actually breaks anything with IPv6 or not. Last that I saw this is still speculative. Or you can grab my package located at: http://www.eric.kiser.com/download.htm. I would recommend using the one that is listed under "Zebra-0.93b *.lrp Packages (zebra-0.93b-gv.0.05)". Compared to my most recent version, zebra-0.93b-gv.0.07, it is smaller and it is only missing support for MPLS. Best of luck and let us know what resolves the issue for you.

Also, sometimes a single route will not propagate thru the network. I have 7 routers in the network and when the ospf works it's great. But I have had to restart too many times now. I have set the router-id manually on each unit to make sure there were no duplicate router-id's. Also, I have several IP addresses on each interface. Anyone having any issues with this? Or any ideas ? --Jay ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Get the new Palm Tungsten T handheld.
