Hi, all,

Quick question, an OSPF virtual link has to be established between two ABRs,
do the two ABRs have to have a direct L2 connection? (direct L2 connection
meaning on one Ethernet segement, physical serial link or have a frame-relay
P2P broadcast PVC). I would say no, because all
multicast OSPF packets would be consumed by transit routers. Better
explanation anyone?
