Hi all,

while configuring an OSPF process for a VRF on a Cisco 3550-12G
(running 12.2(25)SE) I notice that the command "passive-interface"
is unavailable. How can this be? Is there another way I can suppress
routing updates on an interface?

It's a bug. IIRC you can put the "passive-interface" statement in a non-VRF OSPF process and it work e.g.

router ospf 1
  passive-interface Vlan390
  passive-interface Vlan391

router ospf 64512 vrf SAN
  network ...

The other option would be to use "redis connected subnets" and change your network statement to only cover p2p e.g.

router ospf 64512 vrf SAN
  redistribute connected subnets
  network 172.17.0.0 0.0.0.255 area 0

...but this'll change the routes to be OSPF E2s. I used to think this was advantageous (incremental SPF works better on routes changes at leaf nodes of the tree i.e. E1/E2 routes) but have since been convinced that the increased time it takes to sync LSDB outweighs that advantage on modern routers.
