Static Route Configuration
What is static routing used for?
Static routing is a routing type in which a network administrator configures the
routes into the routing table to be used by the router to send packets to a
destination network
router than you would use if you were using dynamic routing.
only.
by hand.
3. It’s not feasible in large networks because maintaining it would be
a full-time job in itself.

Configuring OSPF.
Link: Interface on a router
OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) protocol Terminology
Link state: Description of an interface and of its relationship to
its neighboring routers.
The collection of all the link-states would form a link-state
database.
1. OSPF uses cost as a metric, which is the inverse of the
bandwidth of a link. OSPF identifies the best route by
use of cost.
2. OSPF uses Dijkstra or SPF(Shortest Path First) algorithm.
Dijkstra or SPF is a same algorithm.
3.OSPF provides a loop free topology.
4. OSPF's administrative distance is 110.
5. Before exchanging routing information, OSPF routers find out
neighbors.
OSPF routers exchange LSAs, and the OSPF algorithm uses the
contents of those LSAs to build their routing
table. In this way, OSPF allows extensive control of routing
updates.
6. OSPF is complex to configure and difficult to
troubleshoot.
7.OSPF does not support IPX.
Advantages of OSPF
1. OSPF is an open-standard, purely link-state protocol.
RIP, IGRP and EIGRP are distance-vector (routing by rumor)
routing protocols, susceptible to routing loops,
split-horizon, and other issues.
2. OSPF converges very quickly - from the point of recognizing a
failure, it often can converge in less than 10 seconds.
3. OSPF sends updates only changed portion or partial updates
of a network when link status changes rather
than the complete routing table. In this way, reduces the usage
of bandwidth(BW) and decreases routing
overhead by sending triggered updates to announce changes in
the network. RIP and IGRP hold-down timers
can cause slow convergence.
4. OSPF supports VLSM and CIDR. OSPF supports route
summarization. RIPv1 and IGRP do not.
5. OSPF is a classless protocol, not classful.
6. OSPF uses the concept of areas to implement hierarchical
design, not a flat design like RIP.
7. With OSPF, a router does flood its own LSAs when it age
reaches 30 minutes. The flooding, however, does
not happened all at once, so the overhead is minimal. RIP sends
entire routing table every 30 seconds, IGRP
every 90 seconds.
8.Link state protocol like OSPF doesn't have anything like Hop.
i.e. Do not use hops to mark networks as
unreachable.
When an OSPF router does not receive a Hello packet for a
specified time period, it assumes that the neighbor is
down. The router then runs the SPF algorithm to calculate new
routes.
Practical No.7
Run different SCTP commands.
Sctp : To enter the Stream Control Transmission Protocol
(SCTP) configuration, use the sctp command in
IDSN User Adaptation Layer (IUA) configuration mode. To
disable, use the no form of this command.
