I got routers which only have unnumbered PtoP interfaces and I wonder
how to advertise a host route as described in RFC 2328:
[2]It is possible for all of a router's interfaces to be unnumbered
point-to-point links. In this case, an IP address must be assigned
to the router. This address will then be advertised in the router's
router-LSA as a host route.
The first that comes to mind is to just assign an IP address/32 to
the loopback or dummy interface and start OSPF on that I/F. However, you
can only assign one area to that I/F. How have other people
solved this?
Ideally there would be a command that lets me assign a
IP address which will be advertised in all areas.
