Good Afternoon
I am seeing an issue where traffic is flowing between R4 and R5 even with it having a metric of 1000. Both of these networks are only bridge so that if R2 fails we still have a backup path to that site but its via a very expensive provider. I was thinking about extending area 0 but we have around 30 routers so far in that area and most links are 3g/adsl type point to point OSPF over IPSEC.
. I understand that route selection based on diffrent areas might be causing my issue. Is there a way to change prefrences between ospf areas?
The setup below has been in place for a while and we only noitced we had an issue when the link went down between R4 and R3
