Re: (ASCEND) Routing Issue with Multiple Max 4080's



You must use a dynamic routing protocol such as RIPv2 or OSPF
to propagate the route back to your cisco router.  

Also note that for the implementation you provided the customer,
their RAS system must be capable of systems-based routing.  I generally
use interface-based routing and provide the customer a static IP
on the local MAX subnet and then use the Framed-Route attribute to
propagate the route back to our core router.  This lends for a cleaner
install in my opinion.  Your milage may vary.
