Could someone pls clarify the appropriate usage of the when to use the "ip
ospf priority" command on the interface vs. the "neighbor x.x.x.x priority"
command on the ospf process. Also, the correct usage of the poll interval
as the extention of the neigbor statement. I have read CCO about it, but
they do not distinguish what is the most efficient usage between the two.

Thanks in advance

When the routers exchange lsa's don't they tell each other what their
priority is. I would think that the spoke router is telling the hub router
what its priority is. I don't know if the hub router can tell the spoke
router what its priority should be.

I searched the archives and lab'd this extensively but in a partial-mesh
frame-relay non-broadcast OPSF scenario i cannot get the

neighbor x.x.x.x priority 10

command to do what it should do. The config keeps changing back to the
priority that the neighbor router is actually set to. i.e

neighbor x.x.x.x priority 1

The issue is to get the hub router to be the DR. The way around this is to
actaully change the priorities on the serial interfaces but that might not
be an allowed option in a lab.

Previous post have suggested bugs in certain IOS versions, I'm running
c2500-js-l.112-24.bin. Is there anything I am missing here. Basically the
router with highest RID beomes DR even if I set the neighbor priority.

People have said nail the basics and this is basic. Help?

Thanks
