Configuring OSPF Parameters and Filters
The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) internal gateway protocol enables routers to exchange link
state messages by gathering network information and determining the best routing path based on
node distance.
OSPF is a link state protocol rather than a distance vector protocol and, therefore, needs less
bandwidth than RIP. OSPF is enabled and defined by:
• Configuring OSPF Parameters
• Configuring OSPF Areas
• Configuring the OSPF Virtual Links
• Viewing the Link State Table
• Viewing the External Link State Table
• Viewing the OSPF Neighbor Table
Configuring OSPF Parameters
OSPF discovers the best routing path based on node distance. OSPF is enabled on the OSPF
Parameters
page. To open the OSPF Parameters page, click Router → OSPF → Global Parameters in
the tree view.
