[c-nsp] BGP/OSPF Default Route Question

[Manoj koshti]

Good idea to announce  conditional OSPF default and track the connected routes.

This makes sense to me. Redistribute BGP into OSPF and, depending on
your exact topology, perhaps configure OSPF default-information
originate. If a particular 3550 loses its default route to one border
router, it will simply begin using the default learned from the other
router.
