This one is a bit late, but hey better late than never. BGP is next so hopefully no more frame relay.
Overview/Goals
Implement OSPF in a 9 router network with frame relay as the underlying L2 encapsulation to demonstrate protocol behaviours in a NBMA environment. Also involves tweaking of various parameters using summarization, redistribution, distribute lists, virtual links, LSAs etc.
Technologies involved:
- Serial interfaces
- Ethernet interfaces
- Frame Relay
- OSPF
Logical topology
Pitfalls/Things to watch out for
- OSPF LSA database vs. router’s route table
- OSPF network types and timers
