Hi Pete

Thanks i also thought of that but this still doesn't explain why for example in 
a dual dmvpn cloud / dual hub scenario you have to use different network-id's 
for each cloud as per the design guides. Because if it doesn't matter why not 
use the same network-id for the two dmvpn clouds

Thanks

nhrp network-id is a locally significant.  Think OSPF process ID.  Much as you 
keep the OSPF process ID the same across a domain for sanity, Cisco recommends 
you keep the nhrp network-id the same on a single NHRP 
network(hub interface, and spokes) as a quick reference for what tunnel 
interface it terminates to on the hub.

So as you tested, you can use different network-id values on the spokes, as the 
network-id only matters locally.  Or you can do crazy things, on the hub, like 
bind two GRE tunnels to the same NHRP network(dmvpn cloud).

Hi there



i’ve been bashing my head around this problem for a few days please help



ip nhrp network-id this is used to turn on nhrp on an interface and to

provide the logical membership to a certain DMVPN cloud, otherwise

stated each DMVPN cloud should have it’s unique network id, at least this is 
what all the design guides recommend.



What i did in my lab was to have each spoke and the hub in different

DMVPN clouds meaning spoke one had network-id 1 , spoke 2 had network-id

 2, hub had network-id 3 etc and it seemed to work just fine so i don't

understand the use of “ip nhrp network-id” and i can't seem to find a document 
to explain this in greater detail



Thanks
