RRAS Server Updates Link State Database but Not Route Table

 Last reviewed: March 12, 1998
Article ID: Q176082
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0
  • Microsoft Routing and Remote Access Service Update for Windows NT Server version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

The route table on your Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) server is not updated with routes from external autonomous systems (AS); however, the link state database (LSDB) is updated properly and should cause no routing issues.

CAUSE

RRAS will only update its route table with external AS routes after it has received one or more non-AS routes, such as Routing Information Protocol (RIP) version 2 for Internet Protocol announcements, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) routes, or static routes.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Routing and Remote Access Update for Windows NT Server version 4.0. This problem was corrected in the Routing & Remote Access Service Hotfix Update. You can obtain this update from Microsoft's World Wide Web Site on the Internet at the following location:
