RE: OSPF Host Route [7:70439]

Hi,


Its nothing..its just that by default ospf advertises the loopback address
as a host route i.e with a mask of /32. This default behaviour can be
changed by giving the command ip ospf network point-to-multipoint under the
interface config mode.

Regards

A host route is a route with all 1's as the mask... 255.255.255.255

Colin,

Can't remember if you got a reply. 
The classic case they are talking about is the Loopback address. Unless
you have "ip ospf network point-to-multipoint" Loopback address are
advertised as /32 routes. This might be tough to set up adjacencies with
(since the neighbor won't be on the same segment)

Subject: OSPF Host Route [7:70439]

Ive been reading up on OSPF for the BSCI test and am confused as to what
an
OSPF Host Route is.  RFC 2328 refers to OSPF host routes as "Hosts
attached
directly to routers".  Is host route a route to a host?  Am I missing
something?


Colin
