hi there,

i have got a working configuration of ospf on multiple
point-to-point gre tunnel ethernet links.

configuration (on RT1 - RT2 same with swaped addresses) as follows:

# ip configuration
ip link set dev eth1 up
ip address add 172.16.0.1 peer 172.16.0.2 dev eth1

ip tunnel add ptp mode gre remote 172.16.0.2 local 172.16.0.1
ip address add 192.168.0.1 peer 192.168.0.2 dev ptp
ip link set ptp up


# ospfd.conf
interface ptp
description point-to-point link
ip ospf network point-to-point
router ospf
network 192.168.0.0/24 area 0


and ospf interface shows this:
1-ospf> show ip ospf interface
ptp is up
Internet Address 192.168.0.1/32, Area 0.0.0.0
Router ID 192.168.0.1, Network Type POINTOPOINT, Cost: 10
Transmit Delay is 1 sec, State Point-To-Point, Priority 1
No designated router on this network
No backup designated router on this network
Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5
Hello due in 00:00:00
Neighbor Count is 1, Adjacent neighbor count is 1

nice to have this.
but if i want to have the same without the gre tunnel it didnt work.
see my next (bugreport) post.

so long

bye bye birger
