[j-nsp] External routes in OSPF database

Yes, that was only a "snapshot". As i mentioned in my post, quantity of 
routes increases up to ~360k routes, as i saw in my first try. But in my 
posted example, for security reasons, i shut down neighbor before.

Yes

My network/core routers don't run OSPF. IS-IS is used between them. I 
only configured OSPF on one PE-router for connecting customers, which 
were connected to a Cisco with EIGRP before.

I would only need it to announce a default-route and receive a few 
routes from CPE router, which will be redistributed into iBGP.
I thought it could be a good EIGRP-->OSPF migration possibility. What it 
seems that i was wrong ;-)

Okay, i understand the common tenor. I think i will use eBGP for 
redundantly connecting customers to our (Juniper) PE routers.

Thanks all...
