Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a routing protocol used in internet Protocol (IP) networks to determine the most efficient path for data to travel across a network. It operates as a link-state routing protocol, enabling routers to share information about the network's topology and calculate the shortest path using Dijkstra's algorithm. OSPF is designed for scalability and can support large and complex networks, allowing for fast convergence and efficient routing updates. Additionally, it supports hierarchical network design through the use of areas, which helps optimize routing efficiency and manage large networks effectively.
What else can I help you with?
Is OSPF link state or distance vector or path vector protocol?
OSPF is a link-state routing protocol.
Which is classified as a link-state routing protocol?
There are actually two OSPF and IS-IS
Which two of these are routing protocol?
Rip ospf
What type of protocol is OSPF?
OSPF is short form of open shortest path first. OSPF is based on linked state routing.
What type of routing protocol is OSPF?
OSPF is short form of open shortest path first. OSPF is based on linked state routing.
What is the difference between bgp and ospf?
BGP is Border Gateway Protocol and OSPF is Open Shortest Path First.
What is expansion for OSPF protocol?
Open shortest path first
What routing protocol is the most popular link-state protocol used within a large organization?
OSPF
What does the Cisco IOS use to calculate the OSPF cost to a destination network?
OSPF stands for open shortest path first. OSPF is an exterior routing protocol. OSPF uses Path vector routing algorithm.
In what groups are routers using the ospf protocol organized in?
They are organized in Areas
Is OSPF a classful or classless link-state routing protocol?
OSPF is a classless link-state routing protocol. RIP version 1 and IGRP are both classful distance vector routing protocols, EIGRP is a hybrid protocol that supports classless addressing.
What is OSPF adjacencies?
OSPF is a link-state routing protocol that helps Routers exchange IP routes. OSPF Adjacencies is the established "neighborship" between two OSPF routers in order to make the exchange of routes. In this case, Adjacency means the same as "peering", that the OSPF speakers (routers) are able to "talk" to each other.
