Clarifications, Known Behaviors, and Resolved Issues
RIPv2 Authentication
The authentication feature of RIPv2 is not supported.
RIP in Conjunction with other Routing Protocols
It is recommended that RIP be enabled only on routers running with less than 10,000 routes from other
routing protocols, such as BGP or OSPF.
OSPF
OSPF Originate Default Cost Can Be Set Incorrectly
When configuring OSPF Originate Default, an incorrect cost of 0 (zero) is accepted. If you configure the
OSPF Originate Default cost to 0 (zero) the default route will not propagate (PD2-213413326).
LSA Batch Interval Not Supported
The LSA batch interval feature is not currently supported. Though you can configure the feature,
(PD2-222030701).
Static Route with Switch’s Address as Gateway Not Advertised
If you configure a static route with the switch’s IP address as the gateway, that route is not advertised.
To avoid this, do not use the switch’s IP address as the gateway (PD2-222030705).
AS-external LSAs Might Not Be Regenerated
AS-external LSAs are not regenerated after an active LSA is removed or a neighbor goes down
(PD2-149426154).
Error Message Not Generated
If you configure a low ase-limit with a lot of type-5 LSAs, enabling OSPF causes a database overflow
state before OSPF adjacency is built. This should generate a critical error message, but does not
(PD2-148164866).
Disable OSPF Before Adding or Removing External Area Filters
If you configure an OSPF area external filter on an ABR, and the filter is set to exclude routes that have
already been learned, an OSPF failure occurs. A workaround is to disable OSPF before adding or
removing OSPF external area filters (PD2-105170634).
IS-IS
Unicast Packets Considered Broadcast
Unicast packets are occasionally considered broadcast packets and dropped (PD2-142499344).
