Subject: [OSPF] OSPF RFC 2328

Hello,

I was referred over to this group from 
secretar...@ietf.org<mailto:secretar...@ietf.org>. I just have a general 
question in regards to RFC 2328 or more specifically devices within my network 
that are clearly not following procedure. I guess I am also trying to get more 
of an understanding of how a company would establish itself as being a provider 
of a routing device. I am currently in discussions with a company that has 
provided us with the ability to perform OSPF within our company. We are running 
into an issue though where it seems as if OSPF is NOT following the RFC 2328 
procedure. What’s happening is the device is believing itself to have higher 
router ID than the DR/ BDR when the DR / BDR is already established. The DR has 
a priority of 110 the BDR has priority 105 and the device in question has a 
priority of 1. For a company to even say that they can provide RIP / OSPF / BGP 
on their devices do they have to adhere to IETF RFCs? Is that checked at all by 
the IETF a product is performing per RFC?

I can tell you that this is unequivocally not the charter of the IETF.

Thanks,
Acee (OSPF Co-Chair)
