About OSPF and IS-IS: Choosing an IGP for Large-Scale Networks

Juniper Network's Jeff Doyle draws on his vast experience working with and designing large-scale networks to offer realistic advice and straight answers on every aspect of working with link-state protocols-from scalability, reliability, and security to area design and database synchronization. This is quickly becoming the definitive guide to using OSPF and IS-IS protocols in large-scale IP enterprise, carrier, and service provider networks.

Mr. Doyle patiently demonstrates how topics and features are implemented in OSPF and then walks through a similar implementation using IS-IS. Professionals who are relatively new to large-scale networking will welcome his practical introduction to the concepts, goals, and history of link state protocols. Mr. Doyle's thorough explanations, end-of-chapter review questions, and many wide-ranging examples for both Cisco's IOS and Juniper Network's Junos, also make this book an exceptional resource for anyone pursuing a CCIE or JNCIE certification.

Book coverage includes:

  • Understanding message types, encapsulation, architecture, LSAs, and LSPs
  • Optimizing addressing, neighbor discovery, adjacencies, and router designation
  • Improving scalability: controlling the scope of flooding, link state database size, SPF calculation efficiency, and much more
  • Designing and operating large-scale networks for maximum security and reliability
  • Hardening networks to thwart attacks against routing protocols
  • Comparing OSPF and IS-IS extensibility
  • Utilizing extensions for MPLS-based traffic engineering, IPv6, and multi-topology routing
  • Troubleshooting OSPF and IS-IS log entries, debug output, and LS databases
