color=#0000ff size=2>It sounds like the issue is a Layer 2 / 3 connectivity
issue and not necessarily an OSPF issue (since you do not need OSPF to
be able to ping another router on the same IP subnet). Here are some
questions that might help identify the problem:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear All,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a setup with one XORP platform (Release 1.2 RC
on FreeBSD) and one cisco router, both running OSPF. The physical layer part
seams to be ok (the common interface is up at both sides, the line protocol is
up, the speed is the same at both sides, both full duplex). But I cannot ping
one router from the other router. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>In the cisco's routing table I see the network
address which I am trying to ping as directly connected. In the xorp router I
see the network I am trying to ping as directly connected, but no ospf routing
table and no OSPF neighbours. The cisco router sends hello messages.
