John, If it is not a requirement then you can just leave it as a loopback
network or change it to point-to-point if you prefer,

Subject: ospf loopback network type

hi,
i was curious what the best recommended method was for adversiting loopback
interfaces in ospf....assuming that you have already advertised it with the:
router os 1 net 150.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 area 0

should you or should you not:
int lo0
ip o net point-to-point <?>

the ip o net p2p changes the routing table entry from a /32 to a /24, but
other than that is there an advantage or disadvantage to this? i'm pretty
sure that connectivity would be the same.
