Hi S,
Me again,
Try this: (It worked for me...)
When you use virtual-ifs it will automagically convert to OSPF PtP links

On Router A

Hi S,
I see what you mean...sorry. I think the PPPoFR will probably work, will
have to check it out. Have you tried it?

Cheers
JC

Thanks for your reply,

But your solution refers to the OSPF network type Point-to-Multipoint
which is not default for the Multipoint Interface. The default OSPF
network type for Physical and Point-to-Multipoint is NBMA, which will
not create ptp links to all the neighbors.
For NBMA network type, OSPF will treat it like broadcast and a DR will
be elected.

The issue is even though full adjacency is established between R1 & R2
by tweaking the timers, there is no routes flow between them, and as the
scenario forbids me from changing the network type on any router.. how
do I establish connectivity for all networks ?

Thanks

Shanky

 Hi S,
OSPF PtMP interface creates PtP links to all the neighbors, but the
timers (hello & dead) are not the same. For PtP the hello/dead = 10/40
secs and for PtMP = 30/120 secs.
By changing either one's timers to match the others you will get
neighbor relations going and adjacencies will form. (under interface do
"ip ospf hello <time in secs>"
The following must match to form adjacencies:
1. Area
2. Mask
3. Authentication info
4. Hello timer
5. Dead timer

HTH

Thanks for the link, but in fact the lab is asking for the same type of
configs...the scenarios says R1(mp if) -------- R2(p2p if ) and you are
not allowed to change the network type. So, clearly there is a network
type mismatch here, but how to establish full connectivity without
changing the network type ?
 Thanks
