• Does not use TCP or UDP for updates
• Protocol ID 89
• Resides at layer 3

• OSPF user Hierarchy (more than 1 area, backbone area)

 Neighbor Adjacencies Hello Packet
Field Must be the same?
Router ID (highest IP, Loop or Manual give)
Hello and dead intervals (10,40) Yes
Neighbors
Area ID Yes
Router priority
DR IP address
BDR IP address
Authentication password Yes
Stub are flag Yes
DR is used to broadcast multi access environment. (1) highest priority (0-255), (2) router id. 224.0.0.6 (receive) 224.0.0.5 ( send update). No
Preempt feature. Cost : Default reference bandwidth = 10*8 (now highest)
Cost = 10*8 / bandwidth. E1 routes indicate cumulative cost to reach the destination i.e. int indicates cost to reach ASBR + cost to destination
from ASBR. E2 route reflects cost only from the ASBR to destination. This is the default used by ospf for redistribution.

OSPF Network Types
LSA Types

LSA Type 1 = Router LSA LSA Type 2 = Network LSA

• Tell detail about myself to other • Tell detail about routers that are
• Generated by every routers connected him
• Same Area • Generated by DR
R1 # sh ip ospf database router • Same Area
R1 # sh ip route ospf R1 # sh ip ospf database network
LSA Types

LSA Type 3 = Summary LSA LSA Type 4 = ASBR Summary

• Tell information from other areas • Indicate location ASBR (Who is
• Generated by ABR ASBR.)
• Summary internal network • Generated by ABR

system external LSA
• Tell External Route information
• Generated by ASBR
