RE: OSPF redistribute connected issue

Dave,
        OSPF network types that use a DR (broadcast and non-broadcast) can neighbor with each other and function properly. Likewise OSPF network types that do not use a DR (point-to-point and point-to-multipoint) can neighbor with each other and function properly. But if you mix DR types with non-DR types they will not function properly as you have seen. You should see in the OSPF database "Adv Router is not-reachable" messages when you've mixed DR and non-DR types.

Interesting! I thought that if you adjusted the hello/dead timers to agree at both ends of the circuit....that the adjacency would come up and everyone would be happy. Also, I did a debug ip ospf events at both R2 and R5 and nothing appeared out of the ordinary. What is best way to debug this if you run into such an issue (I like to create these "networks that should never happen" labesque type scenarios)?

Dave,
        You have an OSPF network type mismatch. OSPF network types that
do not use a DR (point-to-point and point-to-multipoint) can not
neighbor with OSPF network types that do use a DR (broadcast and
non-broadcast). They will become "adjacent" with each other if you
adjust the hello timers but they won't become true neighbors.

Group -

Here is an issue that I am having under OSPF....

R2 is connected R5 through a pt-pt frame. R2 is the ABR, which has the
area 0
connection. The connection to R5 and R5 in in area 1. I have a number
of
loopbacks set up on R5 (50.50.x.0)....and, when I redistribute into
OSPF, I
can see them at R2 in the ospf database, but they are not showing up in
the
routing table. And, because of this, the loopbacks are not reachable at
the
spokes (other links out on the network connected to R2). Any thoughts
on this
one?

R2 config.....

interface Serial0
 no ip address
 encapsulation frame-relay
 no frame-relay inverse-arp
 frame-relay lmi-type cisco
