Does any1 knows this case when two Neighbors Stuck in Two-Way State,
this happens when we have more than 2 routers ( 3 for example) on ospf broadcast network, and we have two of them priority 0, these 2 routers form adjecency with the third router (DR) and stuck in Two-Way State.

i checked this out and it was normal behavior of OSPF, and it was made to avoid LSA flood in full mesh network topology.

my question is if i have this case in real LAB, shall i leave it the way it is, or should i try to figure out a solution.

in case of three routers i think we could make one DR and the other one BDR, but if there are more than 3 routers

do any 1 have a suggestion
