Thanks a lot Vic,

My colleagues had to change « redistribute static » into « redistribute static 
subnet » , and now it works fine

Regards

If they are indeed static routes in the other routers, the problem may be that 
the OSPF configuration in those other routers has not imported static routes 
into the OSPF routing domain.

These options control what *your* MPROUTE process is doing with regard to 
information it can obtain locally.  For example, if you have static routes to 
reach Guest LANs or HiperSockets networks the Import_Static_Routes option will 
control whether your static routes are included into your dynamic routing 
domain for advertisement to other routers.

You may not have missed anything...  Perhaps your router colleagues can assist 
with information about how their routers are set up (of course, they already 
know what is being planned so are ready to assist, yes? :).

If the OSPF domain definitely includes the routes you expect to see, you can 
issue NETSTAT commands that query the MPROUTE process for information (check 
your TCP/IP manuals for details on commands and options available). At least, 
your MPROUTE process should list other routers as "neighbours"[1], and 
neighbours should be in a state such as "Full".  Once you know that your 
MPROUTE is joining the OSPF domain, you can use other NETSTAT commands to find 
out what information (if any) is being exchanged with the other routers.

Cheers,
Vic Cross

[1] I just couldn't bring myself to typing "neighbors" :)
