    Lets say that I have two routers (on an internal network) that talk OSPF
    between them.

    Now I have to insert a firewall in-between the two routers.

    I am led to believe (by the Communications people I work with) that there is
    no other option but to install OSPF on the firewall, which doesn't make me
    feel easy about the solution.

    Is it true that there is no other way around this problem?

    TIA,
