VLAN Routing OSPF

For larger networks Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is generally used in preference to RIP.
OSPF offers the following benefits to the administrator of a large and/or complex network:
Less network traffic:
-
Routing table updates are sent only when a change has occurred
-
Only the part of the table that has changed is sent
-
Updates are sent to a multicast, not a broadcast, address
Hierarchical management, allowing the network to be subdivided
The top level of the hierarchy of an OSPF network is known as an autonomous system (AS)
or routing domain, and is a collection of networks with a common administration and routing
strategy. The AS is divided into areas: intra-area routing is used when a source and
destination address are in the same area, and inter-area routing across an OSPF backbone
is used when they are not. An inter-area router communicates with border routers in each of
the areas to which it provides connectivity.
