Project Meeting

Had a project meeting to discuss the debug outcomes which seemed to be conflicting., but there's need to investigate why the outputs have come out that way. When an interface is shut from the analysis it was noticed that the furthest router was taking less time than its predecessor. From the discussion it maybe due to  the number of networks connected to it. The directions were changed and R2 also was slower in converging. as was R4. Further investigations are to be carried out. NTP is the other suspect, we investigated its operation in terms of monitoring the instances and we could see the diversion. If that is the case why is it only affecting when a network is disabled and not when it's enabled. Investigations need to be done ie tracing signals in and out of routers the time delays on device interfaces etc, ascertain whether that is a factor.  Further analysis of the debug output is needed.
