Hi R,
This is the behaviour of the "point-to-multipoint" network type...It
happens because when configured it treats the Frame Relay network as
multiple point-to-point links (hench the /32 masks)
This is to circumvent the creation of DR/BDR's and to overcome the
limitations of Broadcast and NBMA network types...
HTH
Cheers
JC

Subject: ip ospf netw point-to-multipoint
HI Group
I am trying to understand default behavior of "ip ospf netw
point-to-multipoint"
Folloing is my diagram
R1
ospf area 0
R2 R3
All router is running "ip ospf netw point-to-multipont"
Under R1's ip routing table I can see R2 and R3's ip address as /32 bit
mask eventhough they area in the same network subnet. Same applies to R2
and R3's routing table.
My question is
When using "ip ospf netw point-to-multipoint" does interface ip address
is shown as /32 bit mask on the neighbor router.
Can this be configured as /24 bit
Thanks is advance
Raj
