Route summarization
.
•
Supernetting
Supernetting comes from the introduction of CIDR. Address
space is allocated without class as a contiguous number of class C
addresses. For example, an allocation of addresses in the range 196.0.16.0
to 196.0.31.255 could be represented by 196.0.16/20. Such an entry in a
routing table is referred to as a supernet. Subnetting is used to achieve route
summarization and cannot be used with routing protocols such as RIP
which categorize IP addresses by class.
•
Network reachability
There is no path limit with OSPF.
•
Bandwidth considerations
OSPF just sends out link state updates when
they occur, with a maximum interval of 30 minutes.
•
Route selection
OSPF determines a best route using the concept of cost.
Each interface configured with OSPF has a metric parameter, whose value
has been derived from the formula 10
8
/interface speed (however, it is at the
discretion of the engineer to change it, if required—for example when the
link is busy). According to the formula, some values are:
— Ethernet 100BaseTX:
1
— Ethernet 10BaseT:
10
— Serial at 2 Mbit/s:
48
— Serial at 64 kbit/s:
1562
Route preference
All routing protocols are assigned a preference which allows the router to
select routes when different protocols each report a path to the same network.
It could be considered as a measure of believability. The exact ranking of
protocols depends on the router manufacturer, but link state routing protocols
(for example, OSPF) are considered more reliable than distance vector
