I have a question, that may seem rather silly.... but it is driving me nuts.
I have an NSSA area with a few access routers in it.  They are connected via 
Ethernet to 2 distribution layer routers.  The dist routers are advertising 
in a default route, and life is good.
I would like to conserve IP addresses, and I was hoping to put the interfaces 
on the access routers, and the corresponsing interfaces on the distribution 
layer routers all in the same subnet - rather than make a whackload 
of /30nets everywhere.
My problem is that when I do that, the two distribution layer routers form an 
adjacency with each other over the link%$#@#!!
I realize that is "normal" behaviour... but it is not deseriable..
Can I:
-Explicitly force the two dist routers somehow not to form the adjacency?
-Do I just go head and make my whackload of /30nets, and chew up IPs?
It seems to me that this much have come up before....
Any thoughts are appreciated.
Dan.
