Use the 'max-metric router-lsa' command on the router you don't want used.
It will make the other two routers think its ospf routes look absolutely
horrible.
Also, personally, I never let them pick the DR/BDR on their own. Same with
STP's root. I want to know where it is and I want to pick it.

Subject: Re: change ospf distance to manipulate route selection
Hi Nicky,
info: both of them are in the same area, so they have use same database
table.
* Distance command can manipulate only local route selection this means it
can effect only its routing table. On the otherhand within the same are if
you want to effect the routing process for overall routing domain you have
to manipulate this area-database table. Because, routers take the best route
with processing this database table.
