Description
OSPF, or Open Shortest Path First, is a widely used routing protocol that determines the most efficient paths by identifying routes with the lowest cost to a specific destination. Network administrators assign costs to each router interface and network link, and OSPF calculates the total route cost by summing the costs of all router and link interfaces along the path to the destination. This calculation also incorporates the costs specified on interfaces from which OSPF receives Link State Advertisements (LSAs).
OSPF networks include various router types, including Area Border Routers (ABR), Designated Routers (DR), Internal Routers (IR), Autonomous System Boundary Routers (ASBR), Backbone Routers, and Backup Designated Routers (BDR). Each router operates specific OSPF processes that determine its role within the network. These roles depend on the router’s location and the areas it serves, ensuring efficient, structured routing across the network.
