Moving from a fully switched to a routed network layout, I'm setting up ER-X routers at each tower to handle customers PPPoE sessions.
I'm having trouble sharing the routes created by the PPPoE server via OSPF between the routers.
I'm currently testing this basic OSPF configuration on one ER-X, which also runs the pppoe server service:
set protocols ospf area 0 area-type normal
set protocols ospf area 0 authentication md5
set protocols ospf area 0 network 10.65.1.0/24
set protocols ospf area 0 network 10.65.2.0/24
set protocols ospf area 0 network x.x.x.58/32
set protocols ospf area 58 area-type normal
set protocols ospf area 58 authentication md5
set protocols ospf area 58 network 10.1.1.0/24
set protocols ospf area 58 range 10.1.1.0/24
set protocols ospf parameters abr-type cisco
set protocols ospf parameters router-id 10.64.1.49
I have one pppoe session open with IP 10.1.1.1
The router itself has one session with another nas ( x.x.x.58/32 address on pppoe1, that'll be changed later but it's the current setting in the full switched network).
On v1.9.0, this setup only shares the route to x.x.x.58/32 to my other ER-X, while I want to have the 10.1.1.0/24 network shared too.
If I add "redistribute connected" it does not help, however if I also remove the area 58 then 10.1.1.1/32 is shared.
How can I summarize properly the pppoes sessions then ?
I read there are issues since v1.7.0 , and my situation looks similar to this post : EdgeMAX/EdgeOS-1-8-0-PPPoE-Server-OSPF-Regression
So I downgraded the router to v1.7.0.
With this old firmware, the route to 10.1.1.0/24 is shared, no need for "redistribute connected". However the x.x.x.58/32 route is no longer shared to the other router
Anyway I don't think I can really stay on this old firmware.
Is this a known issue and is it planned to be fixed ?
Am I missing something with my configuration ?
