OSPF Startup

 

Down state  -  not exchanged info with other routers.

                        Multicasts hello to 224.0.0.5

 

Init                -             Receive hello. 

Add to neighbor list.

Reply.

 

Two-way       -             receives replies. 

Adds to neighbor list.

“Received” means saw its own Router ID in received hello packet

 

Exstart            -             DR and BDR elected.

                        DR and BDR establish adjacencies with each router in network

                        Master-Slave relationship between each router and DR/BDR

 

Exchange       -  Master sends DBD (database description packets)

                        Slave responds LSAck

 

Loading         -             But if DBD has new link info, slave send LSR (link state request)

                        Master responds with LSU (link state update)

 

Full                -             All LSRs satisfied

                        Adjacent routers synchronized; identical link-state databases

Commands:

 

Show ip ospf interface             -             determine router ID

 

Ip ospf priority <number> default =1  range 0-255 determines DR/BDR election

 

Ip ospf cost <cost> range 1 65535   default cost is bandwidth on link

 

Auto-cost reference-bandwidth             -             change numerator of OSPF cost formula

OSPF Configuration in Multiple Areas                                                                                                     (Lou Rossi, Sr.)

 

 

OSPF Router Types

-internal router  -  all of its interfaces within the same area

-backbone router  -  at least one interface in area 0

-area border router(ABR)  -  multiple interfaces connected to multiple areas

-AS boundary router(ASBR)  -  at least one interface connected to an external Autonomous System

ASBR routers are also backbone routers


OSPF Route Types

- Intra-area routes are routes in the same area (IA)

- Inter-area routes are routes in different areas (O)

- External routes are routes in another autonomous system (E1, E2)


Type 1 (E1)  -  uses both internal and external costs

Type 2 (E2)  -  (default) external cost only; facilitates load balancing
