Abstract:
OSPF is a fundamental component for a routing system. It depends on
the flooding mechanism to advertise and synchronize link-state
database among distributed nodes in the network. As modern networks
become larger and more complex, lots of nodes and adjacencies are
involved into it. As a result, massive link-state information are
generated and synchronized which is becoming an overhead of the
network nowadays.
This document proposes a new design of OSPF database synchronization
which is slightly different from the one stated in OSPF. This new
design can help to alleviate the overhead by dividing OSPF routers
into independent synchronization groups and forbidding
synchronization across the group border. Since less burden from
synchronization, it is possible to accommodate more OSPF routers and
adjacencies in the network.
