Hi Folks
 
This must have been asked before but I just can't find the post.
 
Question is, in OSPF Loopback interfaces are advertised as host routes.
Now you can change this by using the ospf network type point-to-point
statement.
 
What I need to know is. What is the best practice if you are NOT asked
to do this and are there any requirements that would cause you to change
the way the route is advertised.
 
Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks
Shailen
