MX OSPF support

[iores]

Hi,

as of today, does Meraki still supports only advertising AutoVPN routes to OSPF neighbor? I have hub and spoke topology, and would like to advertise AutoVPN subnets from hub to the upstream L3 switch.

Unfortunately yes.

But it does support bgp on the lan side now.

What do you mean with "on the lan side"?

Take a look at the documentation.

It only supports OSPF on the LAN side of the MX when using single-LAN settings. But it only supports AutoVPN route distribution to Layer3 uplink devices. It does not learn routes from the Layer3 device.

If you want bidirectional routing you need to use BGP as mentioned above.

@JeroenVercoulen 

But OSPF on the LAN side is enabled only if MX is in routed mode, right? Can AutoVPN subnets be advertised over LAN port if MX is in concentrator mode?
