===From D.J. Marcko=== Hi, No, this is not an acceptable solution. Router that will get elected DR will originate type 2 LSA and this will not be interpreted properly by nodes that don't expect type 2 for their point-to-point link. There will be "oddities" in your OSPF database and RIB after configuring this, where LSAs will be present in the database, but routes not inserted in the RIB.
These would be lost points on the exam. All routers *must* agree whether there is DR or not on the common segment. The proper solution is to modify priority on R5 and R6 to prevent them becoming DR. What value should you use here? -- Marko Milivojevic - CCIE #18427 Senior Technical Instructor - IPexpert Mailto: [email protected] Telephone: +1.810.326.1444 Fax: +1.810.454.0130 R&S Video on Demand Demo: http://bit.ly/aFyrU4 - Show quoted text - Marko, Great point. Geeze I should have thought that through a little more. The questions says " No routers on the link are allowed to use the "priority" command. However, if it allowed me to use it I would have used Priority 0 which basically says "never become DR/BDR" for that segment/link. Thanks, Ray
