I am running 5.26 on powerpc (OSPF + BGP) and I never had this issue but maybe it's because I have a different configuration Just an idea: for that specific link try to use ONLY BGP (i.e. eBGP + iBGP) so that you have the full route on the "second" layer routers and you can use whatever you want there the only issue that I see is: and if the "poisoning" is arriving from te OSPF core?

On CCR 6.7 has some flapping issues with the interfaces, people report to turn on the LCD display to have better stability etc. So, maybe it's because CCR is a new product, but what I see is that 6.x is still out of control (well... the routeros in general is out of control) Another option: you could run your edge on openbsd, it works great (I used it for years). Not sure about the performances, I mean >1Gb traffic -- Ing.
