Thank you so much for your clarifications. All my questions have been fully answered. Thanks and Regards, Bharath R.

Hi Bharath, On Jul 5, 2013, at 8:05 AM, Bharath R wrote: Hi Acee, Thank you for your response. Sorry If my mail was unclear and longish. Can you please clarify on following questions of mine: If the DR-interface goes down, adjacency of old DR with DR-Others will go down. This is expected. But, is it expected for adjacency of DR-Others with BDR(now the new DR) also flap as well(transition to 2-WAY and again back to FULL)? In this situation, this will happen. As Tanmoy pointed out, this would not happen if both routers determined that the DR was down at roughly the same time (as one would expect). (Like, in cases wherein DR-Others have detect DR down much after BDR has detected DR down and sent it's Hello to DR-Others). If this adjacency does flap with BDR, do we not loose out on the advantage of having a BDR? Hypothetically, if you were a test engineer, you should focus on the disparity in DR Down detection between the BDR and ineligible DR-other router. Also I was hoping to have clarity on the section 9.2 of RFC 2328of RFC 2328 about triggers for NeighborChange event: o One of the bidirectional neighbors is newly declaring itself as either Designated Router or Backup Designated Router. This is detected through examination of that neighbor's Hello Packets. o One of the bidirectional neighbors is no longer declaring itself as Designated Router, or is no longer declaring itself as Backup Designated Router. This is again detected through examination of that neighbor's Hello Packets. Whether these two bullets are mentioning transition from {DR to (BDR or DR-Other)}, and {BDR to (DR or DR-other)} Or does it just mean a transition from (Non-DR-Other to DR-Other) and (DR-Other to Non-DR-Other). Where Non-DR-Other means (DR and BDR). It means that former - any transition will trigger the NeighborChange event. Hope this helps, Acee Thanks and Regards, Bharath R.

I agree with Tanmoy that this is proper behavior. Thanks, Acee On Jun 18, 2013, at 10:00 AM, Tanmoy Kundu wrote: Hi Bharath, Few queries. As you mentioned "R2(The current BDR) detects the DR-down.", how did R2 sensed that R1 is down ? a. first possible option is dead timer expiry in R2. In that case R3 should also get the expiry soon and till that time the network won't converge. isn't that expected? b. Another option is having BFD session between R1 and R2, hence it comes to know. Why don't we run BFD between all the routers in the network ? As we know in OSPF the DR and BDR is not guaranteed. This typical scenario is due to the DR-other is with priority zero. But when received hello packet from DR, both BDR and DR-Other should reset the dead timer. Even if we consider the link transmission delay and ASIC processing, the dead timer expiry difference between R2 and R3 should not be more than milisecond, isn't it ? * Is it right to trigger the NeighborChange event at R3? - I feel yes, other than few typical scenarios the network will at least not be used, until its converged. If Nbr-chg event is not sent then all DR other feels that DR is still active and the same will be used for forwarding the traffic. If someone in the network sensed that DR/BDR is down, why don't tell others immediately? * Is this transition from FULL to 2-WAY is expected? - As per RFC, DR others should not be FULL with other routers than DR and BDR, hence YES. It is expected. * Can DR-Others flap adjacency with BDR if DR down detection happens later than reception of new Hello from the new DR? - * Intuitively, it may seem desirable to continue to be adjacent to a neighbor as long as it is still DR or BDR. Is this a fair call? - As mentioned above, its not fair to use a disturbed or unsettled network for forwarding. Due to backlink check failure the LAN wont be used for forwarding during SPF. Hence as per me its proper behavior.

R2 is the BDR R3 is DR-Other, with DR-priority 0 and hence ineligible to become DR/BDR. Following are the is the set of operations and a sequence of events: 1. Interface I1 is disabled. So, DR connectivity is lost to the rest of the network. 2. R2(The current BDR) detects the DR-down. a. Declares itself the DR. b. Declares BDR as NULL. c. Sends out a Hello with DR as I2 interface address, and BDR as 0.0.0.0 3. R3(DR-Other) receives Hello from R2. As per, section 9.2 of RFC 2328: o One of the bidirectional neighbors is newly declaring itself as either Designated Router or Backup Designated Router. This is detected through examination of that neighbor's Hello Packets. o One of the bidirectional neighbors is no longer declaring itself as Designated Router, or is no longer declaring itself as Backup Designated Router. This is again detected through examination of that neighbor's Hello Packets. Triggers a NeighborChange event, which in-turn results in a DR election at R3. Please note that at this time R3 has not yet detected R1 down. Now result of DR-election at R3: DR: R1 BDR: 0.0.0.0 Since R2 is no longer the BDR, R3 transitions from FULL to 2-WAY with R2(the new DR). Of course, on detection of DR down at R3, R3 will elect R2 as DR and then again transition to ExStart, to Exchange to Full with R2. Can you please let me know: * Is it right to trigger the NeighborChange event at R3 ? * Is this transition from FULL to 2-WAY is expected? * Can DR-Others flap adjacency with BDR if DR down detection happens later than reception of new Hello from the new DR? * Intuitively, it may seem desirable to continue to be adjacent to a neighbor as long as it is still DR or BDR.
