Depends on your OS. zebra will get realtime notification on Linux with netlink, and on *bsd with "routing socket". > Looks like an expect script telneting to the ospfd and removing the > network statement from the router ospf section is the best way, or is > there some more elegant mechanism people use? Thanks Vtysh is somewhat simpler than telnetting. Alex Pilosov | DSL, Colocation, Hosting Services President | [EMAIL PROTECTED] (800) 710-7031 Pilosoft, Inc. | http://www.pilosoft.com
