DOES NOT send frequent periodic updates of the entire
routing table
Sends an update only when a change in the topology
occurs, such as a link going down.
In addition, OSPF performs a full update every 30 minutes.

Describe and Plan a Network Using OSPF
Compared with distance vector protocols, link-state
routing protocols:
• Requires more complex network planning and configuration
• Requires increased router resources
• Requires more memory for storing multiple tables
• Requires more CPU and processing power for the complex
routing calculations

Describe and Plan a Network Using
OSPF
Bandwidth determines the cost of a link
Higher bandwidth = lower cost = desirable route
Cost = 100,000,000 / bandwidth of link in bps
Manual cost configuration at an interface: ip ospf cost

Describe and Plan a Network Using OSPF
OSPF
• Establish and maintain neighbor relationships, or adjacencies,
with other connected OSPF routers (advanced form of
neighborship between routers that are willing to exchange
routing information)
• When routers initiate an adjacency with neighbors, an
exchange of link-state updates begins.
• Routers reach a FULL state of adjacency when they have
synchronized views on their link-state database

OSPF
• Hello protocol is used to initially establish and maintain
adjacencies – sends hello packets to directly connected OSPF
routers using the address of 224.0.0.5
• Packets are sent every 10 seconds on Ethernet and broadcast
links and every 30 seconds for non-broadcast links
• Settings shared include the hello interval, dead interval, and
network type, as well as the authentication type and
authentication data if configured

Describe and Plan a Network Using OSPF
DR and BDR reduces the number of updates sent,
unnecessary traffic flow, and processing overhead on all
routers
All routers accept updates from the DR only
On broadcast network segments there is only one DR and
BDR.
All other routers must have a connection to the DR and BDR.
When a link fails, the router with information about the link
sends the information to the DR, using the multicast address
224.0.0.6.
The DR is responsible for distributing the change to all other
OSPF routers, using multicast 224.0.0.5..

The router ID is an IP address that is determined by:
1. The value configured with the router-id command
2. If no value is set with the router-id command, the highest
configured IP address on any loopback interface
3. If no loopback interface is configured, the highest IP
address on any active physical interface
The router ID can be viewed using the following show
commands:
show ip protocols, show ip ospf, or show ip ospf interface

Within a local network, the router with the highest router ID is
elected the DR. The second highest is elected as the BDR.
An administrator can force the DR and BDR election by
configuring a priority using the interface configuration command:
ip ospf priority number
By default, OSPF routers have a priority value of 1.
Highest priority setting will win the election for DR, regardless of
highest router ID.
The highest value that can be set for router priority is 255.
A value of 0 signifies that the router is ineligible to be DR or BDR.

Roles of routers in an OSPF Autonomous System:
Area Border Router (ABR) - connects an area to the backbone

connects an area to a different routing protocol

LSPs do not need to be sent periodically.
An LSP only needs to be sent:
• During initial startup of the router or of the routing protocol process
• Whenever there is a change in the topology, including a link going down or
coming up, or a neighbor adjacency being established or broken
Other information included in the LSP
• sequence numbers and aging information - used by each router to determine if
it has already received the LSP from another router - allows a router to keep
only the most current information in its link-state database.

• Before two routers can form an OSPF neighbor adjacency, they must
agree on three values: Hello interval, Dead interval, and network type
• Every 10 seconds on multiaccess and point-to-point segments
• OSPF Hello packets are sent as multicast to an address reserved for
ALLSPFRouters at 224.0.0.5

Design and Configure a Network Using
Single-Area OSPF
The router selects the DR based on the highest value of any one of the following parameters, in
the sequence listed:
1. Interface Priority: The interface priority is set with the priority command.
2. Router ID: The router ID is set with the OSPF router-id configuration command.
3. Highest Loopback Address: The loopback interface with the highest IP address is used as the
router ID by default. OSPF favors loopback interfaces since they are logical interfaces and not
physical interfaces. Logical interfaces are always up.
4. Highest Physical Interface Address: The router uses the highest active IP address from one of
its interfaces as the router ID. This option poses a problem if interfaces go down or are
reconfigured.
After changing the ID of a router or interface priority, reset neighbor adjacencies. Use the clear ip
ospf process command. This command ensures that the new values take effect.

When the DR is elected, it remains the DR until one of
the following conditions occurs:
The DR fails.
The OSPF process on the DR fails.
The multiaccess interface on the DR fails.
If the DR fails, the BDR assumes the role of DR and an
election is held to choose a new BDR.
If a new router enters the network after the DR and BDR
have been elected, it will not become the DR or the BDR
even if it has a higher OSPF interface priority or router
ID than the current DR or BDR.

The default configuration of OSPF exchanges information
between neighbors in plain text.
A hacker on a network could use packet sniffing software to
capture and read OSPF updates and determine network
information.
When authentication is enabled in an area, routers will only
share information if the authentication information matches.
Authentication protects integrity of routing information
Type 1 - Simple password authentication
Type 2 - Message Digest 5 (MD5)

Type 2 - Message Digest 5 (MD5)
Requires a key (password) and a key ID on each router.

Summary
OSPF is a classless interior link-state routing protocol
used in enterprise networks
OSPF uses bandwidth to generate the cost metric
OSPF routers elect a DR and BDR on multi-access
networks
Router ID or router priority can be used to dictate the
selection of DR and BDR
The OSPF network command uses a wildcard mask
Default route distribution and inter-area route
summarization are used in OSPF networks
