Dear Group,

I have three routers connected as hub-spoke topology. I'm runing ospf on
frame relay as multipoint interface on the hub router and normal physical
interface on the spoke routers.

I configured ospf as point-to-multipoint network. I have two questions
regarding this setup.

(1) Why I don't need to disable split-horizen on the hub serial interface ?
I need to do that when I configured RIP or EIGRP for the same setup.

(2) What is the use of /32 route that ospf inject to the route-table when I
use point-to-multipoint network since the next-hop is the IP address of the
hub router.

Regards,
NetChild,
