Introduction

OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) is a widely used and supported open-standard, link-state IGP (Interior Gateway Protocol). It learns routes by learning every router and subnet within the entire network; in doing so, it builds and maintains a full map of the network. Subsequently, to find the best routes between two routers, OSPF calculates a metric called cost. The higher the bandwidth of the connection, the lower the cost. As a link-state protocol, OSPF uses more CPU but offers the benefit of fast reactions to changes in the network.
