Thus spake Mike Wronski
Actually an OSPF route must be readvertised/flooded every MaxAge minutes or it is removed from the active table. MaxAge is usually 30 minutes but may be vendor specific. See section 14 of the RFC..
Ah...indeed...that's true...I was thinking flooding more in the terms of RIP, where the whole database of the router was flooded out, rather than an individual LS entry. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
