Description Craig Dowell 2008-05-23 18:41:10 UTC

In a dumbbell topology, packets are not routable from CSMA nodes to the interfaces at the far end of the connecting point-to-point link.  Routing works to the nodes on the stub networks at both ends.  Problem happens when the echo client is on the same node as one end of the point-to-point link and is echoing to a node on the CMSA on the far side of that point-to-point link.  No route is found for the point-to-point network on the return trip.

Reported by Mike MacGregor.

Router LSAs were being skipped entirely in SPFIntraAddRouter.
