Hi All,
I am having problems establishing virtual links in OSPF as follows:
R2 has a loopback not configured in a routing protocol and has S0 in
area 0 and e0 in area 1, R4 has its e0 in area 1 also and has neighbored
with R2 in area 1. R2 has a loopback address in area 55. I need to
create a virtual link over area 1 for area 55 as it is not physically
connected to area 0. The router-ids for both R2 and R4 is of course the
loopbacks but I cannot specify these in the virtual links as they cannot
be seen by either router so I have created the virtual link as follows:
R2
.
Area 1 virtual-link 135.14.220.2 (e0 on R4)
R4
..
Area 1 virtual-link 135.14.220.1 (e0 on R2)
But this does not work. Must I include R2's loopback into OSPF as this
is the router-id? I would rather not and would also try and avoid
manually changing the router-id with that command.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Carl
