Re: OSPF SHAM LINKS

Ospf sham link, is basically use to make the ospf route prefer the mpls link over d the backdoor link. The ospf backdoor connection is an ospf intra area routes, so wen ur configure ur shamlink,it gives u an ospf intra area route (same domain Id), then u can tweak the ospf cost ( if there is need) to make d ospf prefer d sham-link .

Hi Experts,
Do we need Sham-links between OSPF Inter area (then MPBGP) having same
domain-id?
or it is only needed to keep the intra area routes as Intra area routes?
