Re: (ASCEND) OSPF on Cisco 2501 and Maxes

Hello All,

I finally got the Cisco and the MAXs to recognize each other with following
settings; however, I now have another question.

When I do 'show ospf nbrs' from MAXs, one of them shows up as master and
others slave.  How can I make the Cisco to be the master (designated
router?).

Also, do we need to restart the MAX in order for the OSPF settings to be
changed?


Here are the settings...


Cisco 2501:

interface Ethernet0
  ip address aaa.aaa.aaa.1 255.255.255.0
  ip ospf authentication-key *****
  ip ospf priority 5

router ospf 1
  passive-interface Serial0
  network 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 area 0.0.0.1
  default-information originate always
  area 0.0.0.1 authentication
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This line is needed for the MAX to recognize the
                              area authentication type.


MAXs:

90-800 Mod Config
  OSPF options...
    RunOSPF=Yes
    Area=0.0.0.1
    AreaType=Normal
    HelloInterval=10
    DeadInterval=40
    Priority=5
    AuthType=Simple
    AuthKey=*****
    Cost=1
    ASE-type=N/A
    ASE-tag=N/A
    TransitDelay=1
    RetransmitInterval=5


Thanks in advance,
