Hey guys,
Quick question on an issue I had last night doing a lab, here is the setup;
hub router (r1) with two spokes (r2)(r3); the spoke routers both have hdlc
connections to r4; running ospf area 10 between r1, r2, and r3 using ip
ospf point-to-point between hub and spokes (obviously r2 and r3 going to
hub are in different subnets). The hdlc connection between r2, r3, and r4
are in ospf area 0;
from r1, I'm getting two routes to get 4.4.4.4 on r4 (just a loopback
interface i'm advertising into area 0 there); one from r2 and one from r3;
i'm trying to manipulate the administrative distance on r1 (since it should
only be locally significant) to prefer going to r2 as apposed to r3 to get
to this route; here is what i entered on r1;
router ospf 1
distance 109 2.2.2.2 0.0.0.0 OSPF
ip access-list standard OSPF
permit 2.2.2.2 0.0.0.0
Oddly enough, I could never get the distance to change, even after clearing
the ospf process and actually rebooting all 4 routers. My question, when
doing the distance command for ospf, is the "source ip" in the distance
command the router-id of the advertising router in ospf? I thought it was,
I also tried the following
distance 109 10.1.1.2 0.0.0.0 OSPF
where 10.1.1.2 is the serial ip; again, the distance never changed; Any
comments on this would be appreciated. Sorry I can't include the show ip
route ospf, and show ip ospf data, commands, as I'm sending this from a
location where I don't have access to my rack.
Thanks for your help in advance!
