RE: OSPF Neighbor Problem - Yep It was MTU

Hi All,

Whenever I see this kind of scenario on the exam, Can I "preempt" this
possibility/problem by configuring " ip ospf mtu-ignore" command. So
that we can eliminate this problem from the very beginning with out
having to spend time on T/Sing on why my adjacencies are not coming up.

Is this allowed from proctor point of view ?

Regards

Devi.

Thanks all. Yes it was the MTU. I hope this is the last time that
little dog bites me.
