8 - Implementing OSPF IPV4 Flashcards
What does the ‘ospf network ‘ do?
- finds the routers interfaces that match the network/wildcard mask
- enables OSPF on those interfaces
- DISCOVERS neighbors
- CREATES RELATIONSHIPS with neighbors
- ASSIGNS INTERFACES to AREAS
What does wildcard 0.0.0.0 do?
all 4 octets must exactly match
What does wildcard 255.255.255.255 do?
all addresses will match
What are the 3 steps an OSPF router does to add routes to its routing table?
- create neighbor relationships
- build and flood LSAs so that each router in that area has identical LSDB
- computes its IP routes INDEPENDENTLY using SPF and adds them to routing table
What show command verifies neighbors?
show ip ospf neighbors
What show command verifies the LSDB?
show ip ospf database
What show command verifies the routes?
show ip route
What is the difference between a Local route and a Connected route?
Local is the local interface with /32 mask, Connected is the subnet the interface connects to.
What are two ways to stop and start the OSPF process?
- ) Reboot the router
2. ) Use the command ‘clear ip ospf process’
What show command confirms a router’s OSPF ID?
show ip ospf
If an interface is configured to be passive what happens?
- Quits sending OSPF Hellos on the interface.
- Ignores received Hellos on the interface.
- Does not form neighbor relationships over the interface.
Does a subnet whose interface is passive still get advertised?
Yes
What are two ways to configure interfaces as passive?
1) in router-config mode use ‘passive-interface fa0/1’ or 2) in router-config mode use ‘passive-interface default’ and then for each interface you don’t want to be passive use ‘no passive-interface fa0/0’
What show command will reveal a passive-interface?
show ip ospf interface fa0/0
What kind of routers have interfaces in more than one area?
ABRs, Area Boundary Routers
