Hi,
I have not done this lab, however if the question does not put any
constraint on using a particular ospf network type, my personal preference
is ot use point-to-point or point-to-Multipoint, depending on what the PVCs
and IP subnetting look like.
Staying with the default NMBA means you have to worry about configuring
static neighbors, and adjusting interface priorities to influence DR
election. Using the other types means you do not have to worry about all
this and life gets sweeter. Indeed most documentation advises against using
NMBA and *neighbor* commands unless you are using old code that does not
have the *ip ospf network* command.
*Or if the scenario restricts you from changing this.*
my two cents worth.
Herbert.
