<![CDATA[[SOLVED]openospf on one end / quagga ospf on the other]]>Is there a way to make both implementations get along and distribute routes ?

situation:

PFA <–> PFB <--> PFC

PFA & PFB run openOspf on pfsense 2.0.1
PFC runs quagga on pfsense 2.1 Dev

it would not be entirebly impossible to change all to quagga but i would have to go to all sites because i doubt its wise to do this from remote

When adding interfaces to the Ospf, you can set a password. Between OpenOspf servers this works flawlessly in my setup.

If i specify a password on the interface between a quagga host & openOspf, then no neighbours are found. Without password it works without any issues.

I guess this is not this much of a problem in my case, as i use it for routing over openvpn lines that should be pretty secure on its own.
When routing public ip networks it might pose a risk that anyone can join ?

Though quagga has proven to be much more well-behaved than openospfd over time.
