the route metric. It is suitable for large network and complicated data exchange.
Vigor 2960
supports up to OSPF version 2(only for IPv4).
The Autonomous System (AS) used in OSPF indicates the largest entity and can be divided
into several
areas . Usually, Area 0 will be used as OSPF backbone which distributing the
routing information among areas.
When you need faster convergence than distance vector, want to support much larger
networks or want to have less susceptible to bad routing information, you can enable OSPF
