Re: no peer neighbor-route

If you're using PPP encapsulation, when a
link comes up the router will install a /32
host route for the peer. With OSPF
(assuming we're discussing demand circuit),
this will force the generation of LSAs which
is fine at this point. However, when the
link goes away--meaning that you want the
backup link to go down--those /32 routes are
removed from the database. This triggers
additional updates which brings your ISDN
link up again!

Once the link comes up, the /32 routes are
added....link goes down, host routes are
removed, updates are triggered, link comes
up again.... It's an endless cycle.

If you add 'no peer neighbor-route' to your
config your routers will not add the host
routes to the routing table, thereby
averting this problem.

HTH,
