Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is more suited for large area networks
which experience frequent changes in the links. It also handles subnets
much better than RIP. OSPF protocol actively tests the status of each link
to its neighbors to generate a shortest path tree, and builds a routing table
based on this information. OSPF then utilizes IP multicast to propagate
routing information. A separate routing area scheme is also used to further
reduce the amount of routing traffic.
The OSPF protocol implemented in this device is based on RFC 2328
N :
OTE
(Version 2). It also supports RFC 1583 (early Version 2) compatibility mode
to ensure that the same method is used to calculate summary route costs
throughout the network when older OSPF routers exist; as well as the not-
so-stubby area option (RFC 3101).
