DESCRIPTION:
It shows how the protocol's theory is realized in a real-time distributed software system, reveals many of the finer points of OSPF, and offers experienced-based optimization and porting techniques.The implementation described and examined in this book is written in C++ and designed with porting in mind. Written by the creator of the OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) protocol, this book demonstrates the protocol in action with a complete OSPF implementation. The book details the software architecture of the implementation and describes in-depth key OSPF functions, illustrated by numerous code samples. It also includes a guide to porting OSPF software to different environments, with an explanation of the software layer between the OSPF implementation and the operating system. In addition, two sample ports are included–a routing daemon for Linux and an OSPF routing simulator for Linux and Windows.Key topics covered include:Implementation architecture, including I/O, data flow, and data structuresPorting considerations, including handling different types of CPU chipsAVL trees, Patricia trees, priority queues, timers, and logging messagesThe IP routing tableLink-state database, including aging LSAsNeighbor discovery and the neighbor state mach

Chapter 7, Originating LSAs, explains how the implementation originates LSAs, including the building of each particular OSPF LSA type. From the Inside Flap This book is the companion to OSPF: Anatomy of an Internet Routing Protocol. Also included in this discussion are the various events that trigger the routing table calculation, and link-state database manipulations to enable the routing calculations to run faster. One thing that I have learned through many years of writing networking software is that there is always more than one way of doing anything. The complete implementation is contained in an attac
"Overview" according to mark.paton@btinternet.com. John Moy has caputured the whole OSPF implementation in a graphical easy to read format. Technically without equal and the simulation program only emphasises his knowledge.Don't waste time reading other OSPF books this is the real thing.
