Alcatel Unleashed

Dears,

Can any one help on this. I have 3 SAR´s connected by two links in each direction as the topology bellow , but suddenly im facing flapping on the interfaces on the Router R1, and OSPF not stable . The physical is clean ... the log´s is shown :


"BFD: Local Discriminator 1902 BFD session to node 10.1.16.69 is down due to nbrSignalDown "
"BFD: Local Discriminator 1872 BFD session to node 10.1.16.65 is down due to nbrSignalDown "
"BFD: Local Discriminator 1872 BFD session to node 10.1.16.70 is down due to nbrSignalDown "
"Log file cf3:\act\act0806-20170216-150721.xml.gz on compact flash cf3 has been rolled over"

HI,
I have gone through your configs, i can't see anything wrong other than unequal MTU values. You either remove it at where configured or add to where it wasn't configured in your configuration below.

nterface "To_R1"
interface-type point-to-point
mtu 1572 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
metric 105
bfd-enable
exit
interface "To_R1_2Link"
interface-type point-to-point
NONE HERE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
bfd-enable
exit
interface "To_R3"
interface-type point-to-point
bfd-enable
NONE HERE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
exit
interface "To_R3_2Link"
interface-type point-to-point
NONE HERE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
bfd-enable

I hope you can update us with the outcome?.

Dear Eagle,

I will try to use your recomendations , and monitor .

Thank u .

Hello,

I did the changes , but interfaces still flapping :

26267 2017/02/28 13:38:20.92 CAT MAJOR: VRTR #2015 Base 10.1.16.69
"BFD: Local Discriminator 6503 BFD session to node 10.1.16.69 is up"

26266 2017/02/28 13:37:58.84 CAT MAJOR: VRTR #2012 Base 10.1.16.69
"BFD: Local Discriminator 6502 BFD session to node 10.1.16.69 is down due to nbrSignalDown "

What does your research tell you is the reason why ospf gets stuck in exchange (cisco exstart) mode?
The most common is a MTU mismatch in the ospf interface config what are other reasons?

Have you checked those things?
