Adding on X670G2 to an existing OSPF network

Adding on X670G2 to an existing OSPF network

The OSPF network is a X460-24t and two cisco routers. all configured in the same area.

The fimrware of the X460 and the X670 is 16.1.2.14.

But for some reason the X670 is not learning or distribute any route.

How can I troubleshoot this ?

Hello Johan,

We could see as per t he last post 4 weeks back the OSPF init state was changed to full state already. Hence we believe there is no more issues at present.

Let me tell you here some of the possible troubleshooting which you would always look into when this gets stuck in init state:

Kindly check for the mismatch in any of the following:

1: router id
2: area id
3: authentication password
4: subnet mask
5: stub area flag
6:hello and dead interval time

But as said earlier always we need to fix the layer 1 issue if any before proceeding further in to deeper analysis.

Please let us know if the suspected issue is resolved so that going forward we can wind off this long pending HUB thread communication

Hi Johan,
It's been a while since this topic was updated. Have you been able to resolve this issue?

Hi Johan,
Your output states that you have 5 routers in the OSPF broadcast domain. 192.168.178.63 is your DR and 10.2.144.254 is your BDR and all other 3 routers are DROTHER.

From my observation i could able to see x670 is in INIT state with the DR (192.168.178.63) and because of that you are not seeing any OSPF routes.

192.168.178.63 10 INIT /DR 00:20:47:29/00:00:00:01 144.2.144.251 GIDAT
None

Do the following in your 670.
1. Ping to the ip interface of DR(RtID: 192.168.178.63) which is configured in the interface which is connecting 670 to the DR ( i believe it is 144.2.144.251). If ping fails, resolve that. It should be the problem.

Thanks,
Parthiban.V

there were no CRC errors. We checked that.
