Hi,

I have an odd situation with OSPF.

There are 2 towers (Tower A and Tower B) and a NOC involved that feeds both 
towers.
Tower A is directly connected to the NOC via Mikrotik Backhaul.  Tower B is 
directly connected to the NOC via Fiber.
Tower B is connected to Tower A via Fiber.

When tower A is running straight off the NOC (via Mikrotik Backhaul) everything 
works as it should.

We are trying to make a switchover to have Tower A run off Tower B so it will 
be a Fiber connection all the way to Tower A (through tower B) and eliminate 
the Mikrotik Backhaul.

When I change cost on the OSPF interfaces to make this happen, all customers 
work as they should and following the normal path to/from the Internet as 
expected.  However, for one of the customers on Tower A, traceroutes to that 
one customer stop at Tower A (through tower B) from the NOC.  Traceroutes 
towards the NOC, from the customer stops at Tower B.

All customers are on the same subnet.

I can directly ping the customer in question from both Tower B and Tower A (and 
the traffic is taking the correct path), but not from the NOC.  From the NOC 
all traffic stops at Tower B

The only real difference for the customer that is not working is they are using 
a Sonic Wall, and the other customers have Mikrotik routers behind the CPE's.  
We have tried elimating the sonc wall, and replacing it with a laptop for 
testing, and the traffic flow failed in the same way.

Tried all kinds of things and we are quite stumped.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Justin
