Duplicated OSPF Router ID

[fabio]

I've a couple of pfsense in HA configured also as OSPF router

Recently I've added an additional CARP address and both the device sterted to use this address as ospf router-ID so the "dynamic routing" stopped to works

... after change the ID via CLI the routing start to work again

root@OPN2:~ # vtysh

Hello, this is Quagga (version 1.2.1).
Copyright 1996-2005 Kunihiro Ishiguro, et al.

OPN2# configure terminal
OPN2(config)# router ospf
OPN2(config-router)# ospf router-id 192.168.0.3

OPN2(config)# write

Unfortunately after a reboot the ID retrun the old one

Is there way to permanently statically set the router-id ?


PS:
I'm not sure which was the IDs before the "new carp address" but the ospf worked fine

[fabian]

the router id is usually automatically generated and is afaik the lowest IP address of the router.

[fabian]

and no, I have not added that to the form, model and template so it currently does not work.

[fabio]

so should be possible add a new <ID> field in the form and insert

"ospf router-id <ID>" in  /usr/local/etc/quagga/ospfd.conf

to obtain

router ospf
ospf router-id 192.168.0.3
passive-interface vtnet0
network 1.0.0.0/24  area 0.0.0.0
network 2.0.0.0/24 area 0.0.0.0
network 3.0.0.0/24 area 0.0.0.0
