(ASCEND) Multiple MAX 4004's ver 5.0ap1, Stack, Rip V2, to OSPF network?



Like the subject says, has anyone attempted this configuration?

I have (2) MAX 4004's and would like to make use of the proclaimed
"Stack" option with PRI lines terminating into both hubs, users dialing
a single number to gain access to either box, and the MAX's looking like
a single unit (MP across the chassis).

Our customer base (hardware) consist of analog and TA modems with single
static (for security reasons-private network) IP addresses, as well as
several PXX Ascend routers who's address ranges are broken up into small
29 bit (255.255.255.248) subnets.

The MAX's are connected to a Cisco 7000 running OSPF to the rest our
network.  The Cisco interface (serial LAN port) which connects to the
MAX's have static routes assigned to MAX #1 to include the class B
subnets given to this Dial-Up project.  MAX #2 is currently unused and
is strictly a hot standby.

So...we do not want to enter static addresses into the Cisco's and would
like to implement the Stack option.  Am I assuming correctly that I must
enable "Send-RipV2" in the MAX, RIPV2 in the Cisco, and the Cisco would
then be able to propagate the subnets to the rest of the network (both
host based routes from the single IP address community and 29 bit
subnets from the PXX community)?

Obviously I'm not much of an expert on routing protocols and any help
here would be greatly appreciated.
