Solved: OSPF:I can get neighbor OK, but I don't see ospf routes

news2010a · ‎02-19-2010

Hi, this is a lab exercise on OSPF.

If I do 'show ip ospf neig' on the respective routers involved, I do see neighbors OK for all routers involved. However, if I do 'show ip route ospf' I see very limited number of routes learned by OSPF.

For example, on router Rack26R2 I was expecting to see over 10 OSPF routes. I see only one.

On Rack26R1 and I see no OSPF routes, although neighbor info is OK.

I checked my OSPF advertisements on all routers involved and I could not locate any problem there.

Please find attached show run from routers #1 - 6 involved and also a diagram.

Thanks for your help on this.

OK, so the lesson learned here is that on the NBMA I will always need to make sure that my hub router (R5) is the DR.

That's what I said 2 posts ago

You are missing the broadcast keyword in your frame-relay map commands.

On R1 for instance:

interface Serial0/0
ip address 155.26.0.1 255.255.255.0
encapsulation frame-relay
ip ospf 1 area 0
frame-relay map ip 155.26.0.2 105
frame-relay map ip 155.26.0.3 105
frame-relay map ip 155.26.0.4 105
frame-relay map ip 155.26.0.5 105
no frame-relay inverse-arp

Should be:

interface Serial0/0
ip address 155.26.0.1 255.255.255.0
encapsulation frame-relay
ip ospf 1 area 0
frame-relay map ip 155.26.0.2 105
frame-relay map ip 155.26.0.3 105
frame-relay map ip 155.26.0.4 105
frame-relay map ip 155.26.0.5 105 broadcast
no frame-relay inverse-arp

Only one broadcast is needed per DLCI on this case towards the hub. Do the same on the rest.

I did as you recommended from Router #1 - 4. Behavior is the same. Any ideas?

Did you add the broadcast keyword on R5 for every single DLCI?

Let's see the 'show ip ospf neighbor' from all routers.

You have to make sure R5 is the DR for all routers on that frame-relay hub-and-spoke or you can use point-to-multipoint.

I did it now. Unfortunately no improvement.

Update:Ding. Under the interface s0/0/0 on R4 (the one connecting to R5), I did 'ip ospf priority 0' and now R5 is a DR from R4 perspective. Then from there R2 is learning more OSPF routes now. OK, so the lesson learned here is that on the NBMA I will always need to make sure that my hub router (R5) is the DR.

==========================

I see that for R4, R5 is a BDR, not a DR.
