R5 works as a Layer 2 device, and R1 to R4 work as routers. R1 to R4 are in OSPF area 0. Figure 5-12 DR/BDR election networking DR and BDR Are Properly Elected on the Network Assume that interfaces on R1 to R4 have been configured. Only OSPF configurations are provided here. R1 ...
The interface is switched to Layer 3 mode. By default, an Ethernet interface works in Layer 2 mode. If an Ethernet interface already has Layer 2 configuration, this command fails to be executed on the interface. Before running this command on the interface, delete all the Layer 2 configuratio...
If your observe a timeout on the querying SNMP agent while polling OSPF MIB objects, increase the timeout value on the polling SNMP agent. MTU configured at interface level works in either the data plane or in the control plane but not at both...
Based on the link layer protocol, OSPFv3 classifies networks into different types, including broadcast, NBMA, P2MP, and P2P. · If any routers in a broadcast network do not support multicasting, you can change the network type to NBMA. · If only two routers running OSPFv3 exist on a net...
To make the configured MTU work in control plane for MPLS VPN, you need to manually configure the OSPF packet size so that OSPF works on the control plane. This is applicable from Cisco NX-OS Release 8.3(2) onwards. SUMMARY STEPS switch# ...
In this tutorial, I'll explain a bit about how the OSPF routing protocol works, followed by a full hands-on tutorial to practice and see it in action yourself! In the previous page of this tutorial series, we met the Birdhouse Factory sysadmin Carl, who was about to get a little depre...
For the failure events, traffic may be lost during reconvergence; that is, until SPF on all nodes computes an alternative path around the failed link or node to each of the destinations. The reconvergence depends on layer 1 failure detection capabilities and at the worst caseDeadIntervalOSPF time...
IPv6 uses the term link to indicate a communication medium over which nodes communicate at the link layer. With IPv6, multiple subnets are in the same single link and systems communicate directly to the other nodes over the same link, even if they do not share the same IPv6 prefix subnet...

works like a collection of separate point-to-point networks, for which OSPF still uses the well known multicast address224.0.0.5. If the individual PVCs were not capable of handling this multicast traffic, we would have to specify the additionalnonbroadcastkeyword on theip ospf network point-to...
