OSPF on two Routers with a 2960 Switch in between

manuelsch · ‎09-02-2010

Hi Guys,

How is it possible to set up OSPF on two Routers with a 2960 Switch in between?

I had tried it, but i couldn't see any ospf neighbor

And it would be great to have a solution without a static route.

It looks like this:

Router1 (C4506) ------ Switch (2960G) ----- Router 2 (C3750G)

Thanks for your answers.

It shouldn't matter if there is a L2 switch in between.

The connections from the 4506 to the 2960 and the 3750G to the 2960G must either be -

1) in the same vlan

or

2) be trunk connections
