Hi,

 

1. RIP does have an advantage of being a non area 0 dependent protocol. Hence unlike OSPF, cases of routing loops/everything going to Area 0 etc would be solved using RIP when having a common metric between BGP and RIP?

 

2.How did the ppvpn folks handle the hierachial concept of STP root bridge (which is just like the area 0 in OSPF) for IPLS/VPLS etc?

 

3. If in RIP, one was to make the cost a function of bandwidth, what would happen? Would it not merge better with BGP? Ofcourse there are more things to look at when doing this, but has anyone got any results with something similar?

 

-S.F.
