DESCRIPTION:
Though definitely aimed at those well versed in basic networking, OSPF Network Design Solution has the flexibility to grow with you as your level of OSPF knowledge and familiarity increase.--Sarah L. The remaining pages are taken up by configuration commands and tips. The last part of the book is reserved for highly advanced topics, including network design, security, and management. The second section opens with a chapter dedicated to OSPF, complete with the protocol's history and Request for Comments (RFC). From there he launches into an explanation of not only routing proto
Subsequent chapters quickly delve into the details of OSPF routing and network design. Advanced design concepts such as OSPF route distribution and OSPF on-demand circuit design are also covered. OSPF Network Design Solutions presents a detailed, applied look into the workings of the popular Open Shortest Path First protocol, demonstrating how to dramatically increase network performance, security, and the ease with which large-scale networks are maintained. OSPF is thoroughly explained through exhaustive coverage of network design, deployment, management, and troubleshooting. A practical handbook for OSPF network design and deployment. Practical case studies support concepts presented throughout the book. Later chapters focus on implementation and troubleshooting issues, network design methodology, and configuration details for different network types and area parameters. Finally, you will learn about some established and experimental techniques designed to contend with network growth. The opening chapters cover network foundations, such as IP addressing, routing, various distance vector and link state protocols, and network protocol selection. *Learn the most effective OSPF network design and deployment solutions *Master OSPF

Mike Diehn said Good content, but rife with errors.. Oddly enough, I like this book. Odd because, usually, when a book is so poorly edited and contains so many contradictions and errors, I just plain don't like it. Even though I do like it, I don't trust it completely.I purchased it orginally as a reference about eight months ago and only recently set out to read it carefully from cover to cover. When I did, I discovered that quite often, the text and accompanying diagrams disagree. Values listed in tables for IP address ranges in A, B, C, D and E class networks disagree with the authors text. At one point, the author references a table showing differences between feature-. "Good information, but cluttered" according to A Customer. Let me first commend the author of this book for a thorough explanation of OSPF. However, I do have a few qualms with the book, especially in the area of the organization of the content of the book. The author jumps one subject to another, and usually without a decent transition, or without a logical link between subjects. (Example: the author discusses the different types of OSPF routers before discussing autonomous systems and areas within an OSPF autonomous system, then proceeds to discuss the concept of hierarchical routing.) Another qualm: the beginning of this book provides an introduction to networking that is com. practical and more J This book can do a lot for you if you have your OSPF concepts straightened out esp if you have read the anatomy book by Moy. This book actually covers all the cisco implementation details of OSPF and talks about practical real world scenarios. It has some really cool case studies in which you have to design an OSPF network to connect several remote locations with the campus network. In fact, you can download that chapter from cisco's website.I didn't read this book from cover to cover but use it as a reference to figure out OSPF related issues. For instance if you want to see how the 'designated router other' selection w
