Note: If Cisco IOS is < 12.0.3 neighbor will show stuck in EXCHANGE
! Neighbor RID is same as oursEXSTART
Note: If Cisco IOS is > 12.0.7, it displays msg: %OSPF-3-DUP_RTRID
and OSPF neighbor list will be empty
! Unicast is brokenEXCHANGE
1. Wrong VC/DLCi mapping in frame/ATM environment in highly
redundant network
2. MTU problem, cant ping across with more than certain
length packet
3. Access-list blocking unicast; after two-way OSPF send unicast
packet except p2p links
4. NAT is translating unicast packet

Cisco IOS-XR Comparison to IOS OSPF
! IOS-XR introduces a hierarchical CLI for ease of
configuration
! IOS-XR uses CLI inheritance to simplify
configuration
! Interface specific parameters are now configured
under the area portion of the OSPF configuration
! Show command CLI no longer uses the IP prefix.
Example: show IP OSPF neighbor becomes show
OSPF neighbor

Interface-Based OSPF Enable
! OSPF has traditionally
supported enabling the protocol
on interfaces
by a network command
! On unnumbered interfaces,
OSPF automatically assumes
the same area
as the corresponding
numbered interface
! What if the unnumbered
interface is desired to be
in a different area?
router ospf 1
network 1.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 area 0
e0
ip addr 1.1.1.1
se2/0
ip unnumbered e0
88
Interface-Based OSPF Enable
! Allow an interface specific command
to enable OSPF in a different area
! Interface scoped command has
higher precedence
! This allows to preserve
address space
! A new tool which can be used
instead of network command
! By default secondary addresses are
announced; can be turned off with
an option
ip ospf 1 area 1 secondaries none
! Available starting in:
12.3(11)T, 12.0(29)S
router ospf 1
