Study Notes
Point-to-Point OSPF Networks
- To convert an OSPF network to point-to-point, use
ip ospf network point-to-pointin interface configuration. - This action disables the Designated Router (DR) and Backup Designated Router (BDR) election process.
- Status change logs indicate neighbor changes; for example, a transition from FULL to DOWN indicates an interface issue.
Loopbacks and Point-to-Point Networks
- Loopback interfaces can serve multiple purposes and are advertised as /32 host routes by default.
- Configuring a loopback as point-to-point allows for advertising the full network instead of a single host.
- A change from /32 to /24 in route advertisement occurs when a loopback interface is configured as point-to-point.
Modify Single-Area OSPFv2
- OSPF accumulates cost metrics for routing paths; these can be viewed using
show ip route. - To influence path selection, manually setting OSPF cost with
ip ospf cost valueis possible. - This is useful for altering default behaviors in path selection or when connecting with non-Cisco equipment.
OSPF Router ID
- Manually assign router IDs using
router-id ridcommand, with router IDs being unique per router. - A router's ID can only be changed by reloading the router or resetting the OSPF process.
- Use
show ip protocolsto verify the active router ID after configuration changes.
Default Route Propagation
- Default routes can be propagated in OSPFv2 to enable routing to unknown destinations.
- Verification of single-area OSPF configuration includes connectivity tests and propagation checks.
Verify Single-Area OSPFv2
- Verify routing configurations using
show ip interface briefandshow ip routefor expected routes. - Additional commands such as
show ip ospf neighborandshow ip ospf interfacehelp confirm proper OSPF functioning. - A neighbor's state should be FULL to ensure successful adjacency formation.
OSPF Neighbors and Election Processes
- OSPF uses interface priority for DR/BDR elections, with values ranging from 0 to 255.
- A priority of 0 disallows DR/BDR eligibility; the default priority is 1 for multiaccess broadcast interfaces.
- OSPF calculates path cost based on a reference bandwidth formula, implying lower costs signal better paths.
OSPF Cost Manipulation
- OSPF costs can be adjusted for FastEthernet and Gigabit Ethernet to avoid sharing the same cost across different interfaces.
- Costs reflect accumulated values from the source router to the destination network, influencing route selection.
- If the Dead interval is exceeded without receiving a Hello packet, OSPF removes the neighbor from the link-state database (LSDB).
- Cisco default settings for the Dead interval are typically four times the Hello interval, ensuring robust neighbor detection.
