Couldn't save global configuration
It just started doing it today. I think it happened for a short
time on another PM2, but then it started letting me save again.

Oh dear. Looks like it's out of memory. I guess OSPF must chew up memory
pretty badly. What exactly is the effect of running out of memory on a PM?
I'll upgrade the memory as soon as I can get some. Is parity really required?
I've got a bunch of old Amiga memory I'd love to put to use :)
While I'm at it, here's another OSPF question... I'm new at OSPF, so I'm not
sure if I have it set up right. I'm just using one area (0.0.0.0), so should
I add all of my netblocks to that area? I did, but I'm getting a few entries
in the route table that look like:
206.40.79.221 32 206.40.79.11 ospf/E2 HDC 2 ether0
The E2 appears to mean that it's an "external" link... but the 206.40.79.0/24
network is in the 0.0.0.0 area. So what's external about it? There are a few
other routes that appear this way, including ones that are converted from RIP
to OSPF by a Cisco (the DR).
Thanks...
