Best Answer

Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a type of routing protocol known as an interior gateway protocol or an interior routing protocol. The routers in an internet are responsible for receiving and forwarding packets through the interconnected set of networks. Each router makes routing decisions based on knowledge of the topology and traffic/delay conditions of the internet. The routing protocol between routers is used to exchange topology and traffic delay information. An interior routing protocol is used within a portion of the internet called an autonomous system, which simply means a connected set of routers that are managed by a single organization. OSPF is the most commonly used interior routing protocol.
