Link-State Acknowledgment Packets

The router sends link-state acknowledgment packets in response to link-state update packets to verify that the update packets have been received successfully. A single acknowledgment packet can include responses to multiple update packets.

Link-state acknowledgment packets consist of the OSPF header plus the link-state advertisement header.
