RE: OSPF p-t-multipoint vs NON-Broadcast interface!

How is the question stated? Is it saying that your interface connection
to one router must be non-broad and another router p2p? Does it limit
you in your use of just one IP address? Another solution, although un
orthodox and not truly recommended for a live network would be to build
a bridge group, assign a BVI and build two separate sub interfaces, each
to match the needed network type for OSPF.

Just another option. Without knowing what you are specifically being
told to do and your limitations, this may not fall into your needs, but
is an option non the less.

GRE tunnel should work.

How did you configured the GRE tunnel and OSPF?
