       To, that works fine if I don't do redistributon. At thsi point I'm
   going to move on and finish the rst of the lab. No matter what I tried
   I couldn't stop the external LSA from being generated and bringing up
   the link. I'm going to work on mutal redistribution this week on my
   personal lab.
       I have about 16 more type 5 lsa in my database that shouldn't be
   there. They're againg out, though. It was working fine until the damn
   ISDN link. A pox on Lab 8!!!!!!!!!
       I have totally F*&#ed up the routing on this lab. I was good until
   the ISDN link. Two weeks and back to feeling like I don't know
   squat!!!

   Place "ip ospf demand-circuit" on one end of the link (possibly the
   hub-side).
   
   This command suppress the DNA bits.
   
   
   
   * OSPF over demand circuits should not be implemented across a
   broadcast medium.
   
   Reason: the Hello packets cannot be suppressed; keeping the link UP.
   
   
   
   Note: You should only use this command within stub, totally stubby, or
   NSSA areas. Although, non-stub areas can support it, keeping it
   within one area minimizes the number of changed LSAs received as the
   result of topology changes in other areas and hence prevents excess
   uptime of the demand circuit.

       I am having trouble keeping my ISDN line quiet because of external
   LSA being generated when I redistribute OSPF int BGP and then back
   into OSPF.
   
       No matter what type of list I try, I can't seem to stop the ISDN
   line coming up. As soon as the ISDN link comes down, OSPF generates a
   message which is redistributed into BGP which comes back into OSPF as
   an external announcement and brings up the line. (at least I think
   thats whats happening.)
   
       I looked in the archives and have found some references to this
   saying use passive interface or distribute list, but distribute list
   won't work for me (probaly becsue I;m not applying properly), and I
   need this link to operate normally so I can't use passive.
   
       Besides not doing a redistribution loop (which is part of the lab
   requirement so I have to) what am I doing wrong?
   
       Thanks!
