RE: OSPF: Do frame relay main interfaces need neighbor statements (default)

Niall,

By default, physical NBMA interfaces are considered 'non-broadcast' by
OSPF, so unless you change the way OSPF treats the interface ('ip ospf
network') or change the way the interface appears to OSPF
(point-to-point sub-interface), you'll have to manually configure
neighbor statements, as you've found.

By the way, you really meant 'network 192.168.1.2...' under your OSPF
process, didn't you?

Regards,

Mas Kato

Hi,

If I configure frame-relay interfaces like

int s0
encapsulation frame-relay
frame-relay map ip 192.168.1.1 100 broadcast
ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0

router ospf 1
network 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 area 0

Then adjacencies do not form. I can see the hello packets going accross
the
link (deb ip pack).

If I add neighbor statements it works fine.

Are neighbor statements needed? From Doyle it says they are only needed
pre
10.0. (page 558).

I know about using point-to-multipoint. But just want to know if
neighbors
are essential on all versions of software.

cheers,

niall
