Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv2 and OSPFv3)

Open shortest path first (OSPFv2 for IPv4) and OSPF version 3 (OSPF for IPv6) are supported on Dell EMC Networking OS.

This chapter provides a general description of OSPFv2 (OSPF for IPv4) and OSPFv3 (OSPF for IPv6) as supported in the Dell EMC Networking Operating System (OS).

NOTE The fundamental mechanisms of OSPF (flooding, DR election, area support, SPF calculations, and so on) are the same between OSPFv2 and OSPFv3. This chapter identifies and clarifies the differences between the two versions of OSPF. Except where identified, the information in this chapter applies to both protocol versions.

OSPF protocol standards are listed in the Standards Compliance chapter.
