Hi,

The way I understand it, each sub -AS s/b a different IGP domain, so you
shouldn't have OSPF or any other IGP advertising routes outside the sub-As -
that's the job of BGP. So, it looks like in your case, where you have R3
and R2 in the same OSPF domain, you have a config which wouldn't work. Jim
