I believe OSPF has ttl=1, so you should be good with "multicast nhs" on spokes and "multicast dynamic" on spokes. Though if you try to route additional non-link local multicast traffic over it, it'll not work as expected. /Timo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ opennhrp-devel mailing list opennhrp-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/opennhrp-devel
