OK so I think I figured it out. Simple -- RIP hold timer. If a RIP router
sees a route with a HIGHER metric hop-count than the one it currently has,
the hold timer has to expire first to prevent what I'm trying to do from
happening : ) So ...not nearly as dramatic as I had thought and has NOTHING
to do with frame-relay and DLCIs, just a general function of RIP
I'm pretty sure it is just a hold timer thing.
This is what happens when I don't get enough sleep or as Scott would say
"not nearly enough caffeine". Still, thanks for reading and I welcome any
comments
