Tuning OSPF: Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD)
BFD (Bidirectional Forwarding Detection) is a super fast protocol that is able to detect link failures within milliseconds or even microseconds.. All (routing) protocols have some sort of mechanism to detect link failures. OSPF uses hello packets and a dead interval, EIGRP uses hello packets and a holddown timer etc How it works? we discussed […]
Tuning OSPF: Prefix Aggregate
Aggregation is a fundamental characteristic used by BGP to hide any number of prefixes from being advertised to neighbors. The key think is that have to be at least one prefix in a BGP table which is a part of aggregation scope How to do prefix aggregate? we discussed on this webinar series Webinar topic: […]
Tuning OSPF: area Hierarchy, LSA, and area Type
This OSPF LSA type represents networks from different areas. The ABRs’ responsibility is to take part in various OSPF areas and make sure that networks associated with type 1 LSAs may be accessed in non-originating OSPF areas. How to set up area Hierarchy, LSA, and area Type? we discussed on this webinar series Webinar topic: […]
