Hi Lin, please do you mind to show us please the output from the deb ip
ospf adj and events

There are 2 interesting logs here:

R1's virtual-link got down until the dead-interval timed out.

%OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr 150.5.3.3 on OSPF_VL0
from FULL to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Too many retransmissions

Thanks

Asunto: OSPF virtual-link down due to "max-metric" command

Hi,
I noticed this problem is because of doing IEWB Vol2 Lab4.

In task 4.5, we need "max-metric router-lsa" to prefer R2 as the transit
router.
But if I put this command, the virutl-link between R1-R3 will get down.
Strange anyone noticed about this?

Rack5R1(config-router)#do sio vi
Virtual Link OSPF_VL0 to router 150.5.3.3 is up
Run as demand circuit
DoNotAge LSA allowed.
Transit area 123, via interface Serial0/0, Cost of using 64
Transmit Delay is 1 sec, State POINT_TO_POINT,
Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5
Hello due in 00:00:07
Adjacency State FULL (Hello suppressed)
Index 1/2, retransmission queue length 0, number of retransmission 0
First 0x0(0)/0x0(0) Next 0x0(0)/0x0(0)
Last retransmission scan length is 0, maximum is 0

Youngest key id is 1
Rack5R1(config-router)#router ospf 1
Rack5R1(config-router)# max-metric router-lsa
Rack5R1(config-router)#do srr ospf
router ospf 1
router-id 150.5.1.1
max-metric router-lsa

As soon as I put the max-metric command on R1, R3 will take the virtual-link
down

Rack5R3#
*Apr 8 04:57:49.755: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr 150.5.1.1 on OSPF_VL0
from FULL to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Interface down or detached

R1's virtual-link got down until the dead-interval timed out.
Rack5R1(config-router)#
*Mar 1 03:00:52.287: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr 150.5.3.3 on OSPF_VL0
from FULL to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Too many retransmissions

Anyone had experience of this?
