Default Re: Success Stories of OSPF with a Cluster

Sadly I do not have a success story to share. Like cciesec2006 I would not recommend using OSPF, but for different reasons. Check Point uses GateD for its dynamic routing and has hooked it into FW-1. While I applaud the work that the GateD folks have done, I've found Check Point's integration with it to be lackluster and incomplete. For example, there are known issues since R60 with OSPF which have yet to make it into the lastest release & HFA of R65 HFA 2. This isn't some small issue either, its a critical "Check Point just lost our entire OSPF table" issue. Given this issue alone I think you'll be hard pressed to find someone who's had a favorable experience with CP & OSPF.
