it might be interesting to see what would happen if you put their priorities up and rebooted the existing DR/BDRs, let them complete their adjacencies and then put them back down to normal (or even 0). then see if the behavior goes back to the previous.
after that I'd try a different IOS image and report it as a bug. what IOS are you using right now anyway? scott ""Kelly Cobean"" wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Hey all, > I'm seeing some weird behavior on a pair of 6509's that I can't > explain.
