    What is a Designated Router (DR) in OSPF?

    In OSPF, a Designated Router (DR) is elected on multiaccess networks to manage the distribution of routing information (LSAs) and reduce the number of neighbor relationships, improving network performance.

    What is a Backup Designated Router in OSPF?

    A Backup Designated Router (BDR) acts as a backup for the DR. It listens to routing information and takes over the DR role if the DR fails.

    Study Notes

    Networking Protocols Lab

    • This lab focuses on networking protocols, specifically Multiarea OSPFv2 and OSPFv3.
    • Multiarea OSPF divides large networks into smaller areas to reduce CPU load and database size.
    • The backbone area (Area 0) is central, connecting other areas.
    • Routers within an area communicate with each other.
    • OSPF is hierarchical, with a two-layer area structure for large networks.
    • Regular (non-backbone) areas connect to the backbone area.
    • OSPF enforces a two-layer architecture.
    • Traffic between different areas goes through the backbone area.
    • Router configuration guidelines often limit the number of routers per area and neighbors per router.

    Course Plan

    • The course is titled "networks protocols lab" and is part of the "Computer and networks engineering" department.
    • The course code is 30106432.
    • It has one credit hour.
    • The prerequisite is course 30106431.
    • The instructor is Dr. Belal_ayyoub.
    • There are office hours, including days, times, and room numbers.
    • The class timetable for the week of week 6 is given.

    Lab 5: Multiarea OSPFv2 and OSPFv3

    • Multiarea OSPF is used to divide large OSPF networks to reduce the workload on routers.
    • Too many routers in one area increase the load on the CPU and the link-state database.
    • It partitions a single area into multiple areas, with Area 0 functioning as the backbone.
    • Hierarchical design (two-layer area hierarchy) is used for multiarea OSPF implementation.
    • This includes backbone and regular areas.
    • Regular areas can be of different subtypes (standard, stub, totally stubby, and NSSA).
    • Subtypes are not in this particular course.
    • OSPF enforces this rigid two-layer area hierarchy.
    • All non-backbone areas connect directly to the backbone area (Area 0).
    • Inter-area traffic travels through the backbone area.

    Types of OSPF Routers

    • Internal routers have all interfaces in the same area.
    • Backbone routers reside in Area 0.
    • Area Border Routers (ABRs) connect multiple areas.
    • They maintain separate LSDBs for each connected area and route between areas.
    • Autonomous System Boundary Routers (ASBRs) connect to external networks.
    • ASBRs connect different routing domains like EIGRP or other OSPF networks.
    • ASBRs can import and export routing information.
    • A static route can be redistributed as an external route.

    Configuring Multiarea OSPFv2/v3

    • Instructions on configuring various features and the commands for setting up OSPF networking.
    • Examples, like different commands for OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 router configurations.
    • Network information, such as IP addresses, subnet masks, and OSPF areas of the routers, is given.

    Addressing Table

    • The given table lists the IP addresses, subnet masks, OSPFv2 areas, and other important information for different devices (like R1, R2, R3, etc).
    • It’s essential for network configuration.

    Objectives

    • The objectives for each part of the lab are listed.
    • Configuration of Multiarea OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 configurations.
    • Verification and analysis of the OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 configuration.

    Reflection Questions

    • These questions guide the students in understanding the concepts of multiarea OSPF.
    • The questions help determine types of routers based on their roles in OSPF networks.
    • Other questions help students understand how routers and areas interact and their role in the process of forwarding traffic.
