Open Shortest Path First support

i5/OS support includes the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol. OSPF is a link-state, hierarchical Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) for network routing.

This topic collection describes i5/OS support for OSPF configuration, authentication methods, point-to-point links, packet types and splitting an OSPF autonomous system (AS) into areas. It also includes three scenarios, one that demonstrates OSPF routes on a TCP/IP stack, one that demonstrates multipath routes, and another that demonstrates an i5/OS API.
