Summary: OSPFd failed to reconize interface as being UP
Product: Quagga
Version: 0.98.6
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Low
Component: ospfd
AssignedTo: maintainers@quagga.net
ReportedBy: lorenl@north-winds.org


ospfd would not recognize the interface eth0 as being UP. eth0 is the primary
interface attached to my private network. I installed and started ospfd and
zebra remotely over an ssh connection using eth0. I attempted to remove and
re-add the interface with the following commands:

(config-router)# no network 192.168.1.6/24 area 0.0.0.0
(config-router)# network 192.168.1.0/24 area 0.0.0.0
(config-router)# no network 192.168.1.0/24 area 0.0.0.0
(config-router)# network 192.168.1.6/24 area 0.0.0.0
(config-router)# end
# show ip ospf inter eth0
eth0 is down
OSPF not enabled on this interface

I was using an identical ospf configuration on two other routers minus router-id
and ip address without problems. One peculiarity with the router that was not
working was that it had a second ip subnet assigned to it that was
169.254.0.2/16. This subnet MAY have been assigned after I started ospfd, but
it WAS before I configured ospfd (except for the password lines). Once I
manually restarted ospfd with the same configuration, it came up correctly and
found eth0 as being UP.

Current configuration:
!
hostname router.example.com
password ******
enable password ******
log file /tmp/ospfd.log
!
debug ospf ism
debug ospf event
!
!
interface eth0
ip ospf authentication-key ******
!
router ospf
ospf router-id 192.168.1.6
redistribute connected
redistribute static
redistribute rip
redistribute bgp
network 192.168.1.6/24 area 0.0.0.0
!
line vty
!
end
