Hi guys,

I have been learning OSPF, and to understand it well, nothing is better than practice.

So I tried to set it up in GNS3.

Here is my topology (tell me if you can't read):

hvos49.jpg

Everything works, I can ping any router from any router.
But there is still a point that I am missing:

I haven't added any loopback interface.

In my backbone (Area 0):
R3 is the DR and R4 the BDR. I don't understand why R3 is instead of R4 which has the same priority (1), but a higher ip address. (192.168.1.1 > 172.16.1.2).

Then I don't understand why R5 isn't a neighboring of R4.

Here are some conf:

    Well, I am going to guess on the DR and DBR, and say that because the 192 address on R4 is in a different area ???

    As for the neighbor not being established, make sure that the network is properly being advertised (SM/Area/Net ID). Try debugging on the routers and see what you see (debug ip ospf adj).

    I think the key point to remember with ospf DR - BDR elections is this

    for example

    Say you boot up R3 first and it doesnt hear any other ospf routers competing for the election it will elect itself as the DR then when any other router on the segment comes online it WILL NOT influence the election like spanning tree does. meaning R3 will always still DR ( even if it had an ip address of 1.1.1.1) The only way you could have the election is to restart R3 and R4 (or clear ip ospf process) at the same time and then you will notice R4 being elected as DR.

    also you have your topology in area 0 connected via broadcast fastethernet point to point style which means you will only have a DR and BDR per segement.

    Ie - the segment to R3 - R4 will have a dr and bdr -
    R3 to R5 will have its own DR BDR and R4 to R5 will have its own meaning 1 router can be all sorts of things. it can be a dr bdr or drother depending on whats connected.

    also your problem as to why R4 wont become adjacent with R5 -

    I would check your config on R5 and R4 and compare.

    its most likely you havnt set something up correctly

    remember they need to be in the same area, same hello dead timers, the interface must be open, same subnet. You should try a debug. the debugs are great they tell you what is going on (or wrong in the ospf process ) i find it to be very helpful.

    If your goal is to practice DR/BDR relationships and how they form, put a switch in the middle of area 0, and hook all of the routers into that, and address their interfaces in a common IP subnet, and then bring up OSPF. Then you have a valid need for DR/BDR elections (and if you do that, I'd add a 4th router to area 0 so you can see how the non DR/BDR routers form relationships with each other)

    As far as your neighbor problem goes.... you post sh ip ospf int for R3 and R4, but not R5, and the adjacency problem is occuring on R5. Not much we can tell you. I'd suggest you run the same command on R5 and see what it has to say. I suspect you'll find that the interface connected to R4 isn't actually participating in OSPF (or it may not be up). This won't break your IP connectivity however, as R4 can still communicate with R5 through R3, it just makes your effective topology a line instead of a triangle

    You'd be better off changing your Area 0 links to use point-to-point and get rid of the DR/BDR elections entirely, because that's basically how you have your topology designed. This would also free up a couple router ports. That may not seem like such a big deal when you're learning or labbing, but don't pick up bad design habits. Router ports are expensive in the real world. If you're going to do a full mesh in area 0, you need to know *why* you're doing it. Redundancy and Resiliency is the proper reason to do that, btw. Hooking everything into a switch means that if any one link breaks, you're cut off from the rest of it. Having each router linked to the other allows routing to continue even if any single link in area 0 goes down, which you've inadvertently demonstrated, due to R4 and R5 not forming a proper relationship.

    So Indeed, my bad. I didn't notice it first, but the interface f0/0 was not up.

    OK then I will do that topology too.
    I just read my book again:
    An OSPF router will not form adjacencies to just any router. Instead, a client/server design is implemented in OSPF on each broadcast segment.

    I realized that I missed the broadcast term. So I understand better your suggestion.

    You'd be better off changing your Area 0 links to use point-to-point and get rid of the DR/BDR elections entirely, because that's basically how you have your topology designed.

    Sorry (english is not my first language), but I am not sure to get what you are trying to say. Are you telling me to change my links (using serial instead of fastethernet)? So You mean that I should use only 2 routers? :confused
    Is that why it should free up some router ports?

    No, you should change the network type on each link. Do some mmore studying/research on the different OSPF network types, what the difference between them is, and what different interface types default to as far as them.

    And I think I might have put my mention of saving router ports in the wrong location. If you put a switch in the middle to create a true broadcast environment in area 0, then you wouldn't need a full mesh of links between the individual routers, you could establish all of your relationships with one link in area 0 per router. However, as I mentioned, that can impair resiliency in the network.

    What I'm getting at is that your area 0 design is, in my opinion, actually correct, but given your confusion over the nature of DR/BDR elections, your don't know why it's correct, and I don't give credit for accidental answers hehe

    So I have finally tried the following topology :
    e8x10j.jpg

    The DR is R3, and BDR is R2.
    Everything works well!!

    Then I cut R2 link and as expected R1 became BDR.

    After that I put back R2's link and added a fourth router (R4).
    2gxqmfd.jpg

    And then R4 became DR and R3 BDR.
    But I thought that no changes occur even if a new router has a higher address. Normally R3 should still be DR, shouldn't it?

    I run a debug ip ospf event on R4 (while I was adding it to the switch):

    Here's something to try in a GNS3 lab when working with DR/BDR

    Bring up two routers and connect two serial interfaces together

    Use the show ip ospf neighbor command

    States will show as FULL/ - on both routers

    Add an ip ospf network broadcast to the config of both serial interfaces. Then do a shut/no shut on both.

    You'll now see FULL/DR and FULL/BDR for the OSPF states of your routers

    This scenario is more useful with a real lab as you can use this tip to add more OSPF broadcast links to your lab.

    I doubt there's a use for this in a production environment, so don't try this at work.

    ;)
