Day One: Advanced OSPF in the Enterprise (Junos Networking Technologies Book 8)

As your network grows, as your business takes on new employees, as more and more services are shared within your network environment, and as all the other forces at work in today’s networking environment come into play, OSPF’s ability to scale is key to the success of your enterprise environment.

as one of the most widely used routing protocols, OSPF has many advantages over other iGPs (interior Gateway Protocols), with its ability to scale in a manageable way being one of the most important. OSPF also has the advantage of converging much faster than other enterprise level iGPs, such as eiGrP or riP. This book shows you how to avoid com- mon pitfalls when applying OSPF in Junos devices in an enterprise environment and how to prepare your network for future growth and expansion.
