James,

I think this is what you have probably encountered.

Here is the problem replicated (below) with Frame Relay which is sometimes a
bit more difficult to spot. R5 is learning on its serial interface via InARP
remote router's IP address. R5 has ip address 162.1.0.5/25 configured on its
serial. One of the remote routers has 4.4.4.0/24. Both routers run eigrp. R4
and R5 have a PVC between them and that is how this mapping occurs. I have
seen things like this happening also with OSPF p-2-m where the spokes become
fully adjacent. When you do vendor practice labs the FR switches are pretty
much fully meshed, so you will come across these kind of issues.

You can disable inARP or create a FR sub i/f and move the offending DLCI's
to that.
