Re: OSPF host routes

Change the ospf network type on the loopback to
multipoint.

 Hi Guys / Gals
 
 Does anyone know of a way to make OSPF advertise the
 loopback network
 instead of the host route?
 
 ie:
 
 int lo0
 ip add 213.166.24.161 255.255.255.240
 
 comes up in other routers routing tables as:
 
 O213.166.24.161/32 [110/154] via
 213.166.25.17 Serial0.3
 
 when i would like it to look like:
 
 O213.166.24.160/28 [110 etc etc
 
 Apparently OSPF just treats loopbacks like this,
 EIGRP doesn't, therefore
 the ospf route is always more specific when setting
 up lab exercises with
 redistribution, so its hard to get into trouble!
