A question regarding DR selection :-).
I learned that if you want one router be hundred percent sure as DR, you can
configure this router as "priority 255" and configure other routers
"priority 0".
Scenario: FR cloud, neighbour command only:
But when I check router configuration, in the one with "priority 0",
"neighbour xxxxx" command doesn't show up in running configuration at all.
Is this normal?
And just to confirm, do you need two neighbour statement in DR-other router
(spoke) pointing to both hub and other spoke?
Thanks!
