SLX 9030 OSPF over MCT

I am struggling to get OSPF to work over MCT on the SLX 9030 platform. Ruckus and netIron support this functionality. I can’t even get basic connectivity (ICMP).

Sample Config - SLX 01

when i was evaluating the SLX last year I couldn’t get MCT to work at all.

That’s what I am afraid of. It doesn’t work and no one seems to be able to answer my question.

The SLX9030 does support OSPF over MCT. I assume the vrf is being specified when issuing the ping (Ex. SLX# ping 10.253.18.49 vrf management-vrf)? If possible, please open a support case to investigate the cause of the connectivity issues as needed.
