[ospfd] Bug #288: do not change router ID unless forced by manual configuration
2006-07-27 Andrew J. Schorr <ajschorr@alumni.princeton.edu> * ospfd.c: (ospf_router_id_update) Fix and document the algorithm for selecting the router ID: if there is not a statically configured ID, then stick to the most recent value to avoid disruptive changes. This should fix bug #288.
