Hi, all
According to rfc2328. p.175, when we have multiple
intra-area paths to ASBR,
a intra-area path using non-backbone area should be
chosen over one using
backbone area.
But I always have opposite result. doesn't Cisco's
implementation yet
conform to rfc2328 in this respect?

Here's from my cisco 2501 router.

r2#sh ip ospf data
-------------------------------------------------omitted
               Type-5 AS External Link States

Link ID ADV Router Age Seq#
Checksum Tag
131.108.0.0 192.168.40.3 324 0x80000003
0xE930 0
r2#
r2#sh ip ospf border

OSPF Process 10 internal Routing Table

Codes: i - Intra-area route, I - Inter-area route

i 192.168.40.3 [74] via 172.16.2.2, Serial0, ABR/ASBR,
Area 0, SPF 7
i 192.168.40.3 [1562] via 172.16.30.33, Serial1,
ABR/ASBR, Area 6, SPF 5

r2#sh ip route
-----------------omitted
O E2 131.108.0.0/16 [110/20] via 172.16.2.2, 00:03:38,
Serial0
r2#

Could somebody explain this to me?
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
