Hey Hey, I have lab'ed up a scenario where EIGRP is running as an IGP in the MPLS core. I am using OSPF as an IGP between PE-CE at both the sites.
1)- If I create a sham-link with NO domain-id, the routes appear to be intra-area. It makes sense as sham-link is like a virtual-link over MPLS. Please correct me if wrong. 2)- If I add domain-id and different ones still the routes appear to be intra-area. Is it because domain-id doesn't take effect or what? Confused at this point 3)- If I remove the sham-link and simply use same domain-id at both PEs I get inter-area routes. This one makes sense as the BGP community carries the domain-id along with it. The PE looks as it and knows how to manipulate it. I am confused at point 2. Can anyone explain please? Thanks. Regards, Samir Idris. _______________________________________________ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com Are you a CCNP or CCIE and looking for a job?
