When OSPF Becomes a Distance Vector Protocol 1.0 E-Lesson
Have you ever came across the situation implying that OSPF is not a pure link-state protocol? Seems hard to believe, but it is true. Take our e-learning which will give you answers on how to tweak OSPF parameters and how to prevent IP prefix reappearance in the original area. OSPF behaves almost like a distance vector routing protocol between the areas, as IP prefixes may reappear into the area from which were originated. This feature introduces temporary routing instabilities into multi-area OSPF network that does not use inter-area summarization. In this e-lesson we illustrate how this unexpected behavior can affect the convergence of your network and how you can use proprietary extensions of Cisco IOS to alleviate the undesired side effects of OSPF. The added remote lab exercise will enable you to observe the effects.
