3 Link State

4 The information available to a distance vector router has been compared to the information available from a road sign. Link state routing protocol are like a road map. Link State routing include the following: Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) for IP The ISOs Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) for CLNS and IP DECs DNA Phase V Novells NetWare Link Services Protocol (NLSP)

5 OSPF propagates link-state advertisements rather than routing table updates LSAs are flooded to all OSPF routers in the area The OSPF link-state database(LSDB) is pieced together from the LSAs generated by the OSPF routers OSPF use the SPF algorithm to calculate the shortest path to a destination Link = router interface State = description of an interface and its relationship to neighboring routers OSPF as a Link-State Protocol

6 –Neighbor table: Also known as the adjacency database Contains list of recognized neighbors –Topology table: Typically referred to as LSDB Contains all routers and their attached links in the area or network Identical LSDB for all routers within an area –Routing table: Commonly named a forwarding database Contains list of best paths to destinations Link State Data Structures

7 Link State Routing Protocol Link-state routers recognize more information about the network than their distance vector counterparts. Each router has a full picture of the topology. Consequently, link-state routers tend to make more accurate decisions.

8 OSPF Areas

9 Link State Data Structure: Network Hierarchy Link-state routing requires a hierachical network structure that is enforced by OSPF. This two-level hierarchy consists of the following: Transit area (backbone or area 0) Regular areas (non-backbone areas)

10 OSPF area characteristics: Minimizes routing table entries Localizes impact of a topology change within an area Detailed LSA flooding stops at the area boundary Requires a hierarchical network design OSPF Areas Backbone Area Area1 Area2 Area3

11 OSPF Terminology Router A and B are backbone routers Backbone routers make up area 0 Router C, D and E are known as Area Border Routers (ABRs) ABRs attach all other areas to area 0 Backbone Area Area1 Area2 Area3

12 OSPF Behavior

13 OSPF Adjacencies Hello Routers discover neighbors by exchange hello packets Routers declare neighbors to be up after checking certain parameters or options in the hello packet

14 Forming OSPF Adjacencies Point-to-point WAN links: Both neighbors become full adjacent LAN Links Neighbors form a full adjacency with the DR and BDR Routers maintain two-way state with the other routers (DROTHERs) Routing updates and topology information are passed only between adjacent routers Once an adjacency is formed, LSDBs are synchronized by exchanging LSAs LSAs are flooded reliably through the area (or network)

15 OSPF Router ID The Router is Known to OSPF by the OSPF router ID number LSDBs use the OSPF router ID to differentiate one router from the next In descending other of specificity, the Router-id may be one of following: Router-id command Highest loopback address Highest Active IP address

16 OSPF DR/BDR Election DR/BDR will be electing by the following rules: The router With Highest priority value is the DR The router with the second highest priority value is BDR In case of a tie. The highest Router ID is DR, the second is BDR A router with priority of 0 cannot be the DR or BDR A router thats not DR or BDR is a DROther If a router with higher priority comes into the network, it does not preempt the DR or BDR

17 Routers find the best paths to destinations by applying Dijkstras SPF algorithm to link- state database as follows: Every router in an area has the identical link-state DB Each router in the area places itself into the root of the tree that is built The best path is calculated with respect to the lowest total cost of links to a specific destination Best routes are put into the forwarding database(routing table) OSPF Calculation

21 Neighborship: The Hello Packet Hello hello Router ID Hello and dead intervals Neighbors Area ID Router priority DR IP address BDR IP address Authentication password Stub area flag Entry must match on neighboring routers

37 OSPF Network Type

38 The three types of networks defined by OSPF are: Point-to-point: A network that joins a single pair of routers Broadcast: A multiaccess broadcast network, such as Ethernet Non-Broadcast multiaccess(also called NBMA): A network that interconnects more than two routers but that has no broadcast capability. Frame Relay, X.25 and ATM are examples of NBMA networks

39 Point-to-point Links Usually a serial interface running either PPP or HDLC May also be a point-to-point interface running Frame Relay or ATM No DR or BDR election required OSPF autodetects this interface type OSPF packets are send using multicast

40 Broadcast Network Generally these are LAN technologies like Ethernet and Token Ring DR and BDR election are required All neighbor routers form full adjacencies with the DR and BDR only Packets to the DR and BDR use Packets from DR to all other routers use

41 Hello Electing the DR and BDR Hello packets are exchange via IP multicast The router with the highest priority is selected as the BR. The second-highest one is the BDR Use the OSPF RID as the tie breaker The DR election is nonpreemptive
