My OSPF setup works but I wonder what not having a remote source setup as listed by the following will have if any. HiPer>> lisT ospF sendPOLICY OSPF Send Policies: Source Address/Mask Action ANY 000.000.000.000/0 Do Not Advertise LOCAL 065.090.190.128/25 Advertise LOCAL 065.090.191.032/27 Advertise I remember a good while back that a mention of a send policy should be set for both local and remote sources. What is the affect of having no remote source for the ip pools if any? Also, I didn't set any receivepolicy but I don't believe I need one. Is this correct?
