OSPF Network Types: DR/BDR, Broadcast vs P2P
Hands-on CCNP OSPF lab comparing broadcast and point-to-point network types. Three routers share a multi-access Ethernet via an access switch to observe DR/BDR election, manipulate interface priorities, and then convert to point-to-point. Includes a user LAN behind R1 and realistic troubleshooting: neighbor stuck in 2-Way due to type mismatch, area mismatch isolating a router, and incorrect interface priority preventing desired DR/BDR roles.
