[c-nsp] OSPF on Secondary IP addresses.

[Masood Ahmad Shah]

Can OSPF establish as neighbors on secondary addresses? Do not have any luck
unless the OSPF network interface is primary. Any ideas why and how do we go
around this? 

 

What if a ROUTERA is connected to a wireless bridge which is serving
multiple sites . Or there can be many other situation when you need to build
adjacency on secondary IP address instead of primary IP. 

 

Oops I can't find any parameter (when I configure secondary address on Cisco
Router) like preferred/primary . thanks to juniper guys for providing it ;)
