I feel kinda left out as I'm yet to encounter the OSPF issues I hear people
talking about.
Been running a star OSPF network for management purposes since late v3 with
no issues I've seen other than accidentally duplicating router-id's from
time to time with replacement equipment.

Unfortunately I'm no help in the MPLS department thou, might be worth
pinging Andrew Thrift to see if he's got anything to say :-)

Have a super mega nice day.

Kind Regards,
