Features: This book is suitable for TCP/IP network administrators, protocol designers, and developers of network applications. OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) is a commonly used TCP/IP routing protocol that provides robust and efficient routing support in harsh Internet environments. This book systematically and comprehensively describes the OSPF protocol and its role in the broad TCP/IP network environment. It describes Internet routing from both theoretical and practical perspectives. For example, it explains the implementation of various algorithms and demonstrates how routing protocols function in working networks where transmission connections and router crashes frequently occur.
