Hello,

I was referred over to this group from [email protected]. I just have a 
general question in regards to RFC 2328 or more specifically devices within my 
network that are clearly not following procedure. I guess I am also trying to 
get more of an understanding of how a company would establish itself as being a 
provider of a routing device. I am currently in discussions with a company that 
has provided us with the ability to perform OSPF within our company. We are 
running into an issue though where it seems as if OSPF is NOT following the RFC 
2328 procedure. What's happening is the device is believing itself to have 
higher router ID than the DR/ BDR when the DR / BDR is already established. The 
DR has a priority of 110 the BDR has priority 105 and the device in question 
has a priority of 1. For a company to even say that they can provide RIP / OSPF 
/ BGP on their devices do they have to adhere to IETF RFCs? Is that checked at 
all by the IETF a product is performing per RFC?
