- OSPF is a link-state routing protocol that is more scalable than RIP. It builds a complete "map" of the network to avoid routing loops.
- OSPF uses link-state advertisements and flooding to exchange routing information between routers. It elects a designated router and backup designated router to optimize this exchange.
- Routers using OSPF establish neighbor relationships, synchronize their link-state databases, and calculate the shortest path to all known destinations using an algorithm on the link-state database.
This slide contains the basic and advanced concept of OSPF routing protocol, according to the latest version of Cisco books, and I presented it at IRAN TIC company. In the next slide, I will upload an attractive advanced feature about OSPF.

A computer network, or simply a network, is a collection of computer and other hardware components interconnected by communication channels that allow sharing of resources and information. Where at least one process in one device is able to send/receive data to/from at least one process residing in a remote device, then the two devices are said to be in a network. Simply, more than one computer interconnected through a communication medium for information interchange is called a computer network.
Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) is a Cisco proprietary redundancy protocol for establishing a faulttolerant default gateway, and has been described in detail in RFC 2281.
The protocol establishes a framework between network routers in order to achieve default gateway
failover if the primary gateway becomes inaccessible, in close association with a rapid-converging
routing protocol like EIGRP or OSPF. By multicasting packets, HSRP sends its hello messages to the
multicast address 224.0.0.2 (all routers) for version 1, or 224.0.0.102 for version 2, using UDP port 1985,
to other HSRP-enabled routers, defining priority between the routers.
Overview of the MPLS backbone transmission technology.
MPLS (MultiProtocol Layer Switching) is a layer 2.5 technology that combines the virtues of IP routing and fast layer 2 packet switching.
IP packet forwarding is not suited for high-speed forwarding due to the need to evaluate multiple routes for each IP packet in order to find the optimal route, i.e. the route with the longest prefix match.
However, Internet Protocol routing provides global reachability through the IP address and through IP routing protocols like BGP or OSPF.
Layer 2 packet switching has complementary characteristics in that it does not provide global reachability through globally unique addresses but allows fast packet forwarding in hardware through the use of small and direct layer 2 lookup addresses.
MPLS combines IP routing and layer 2 switching by establishing layer 2 forwarding paths based on routes received through IP routing protocols like BGP or OSPF.
Thus the control plane of an MPLS capable device establishes layer 2 forwarding paths while the data plane then performs packet forwarding, often in hardware.
MPLS is not a layer 2 technology itself, i.e. it does not define a layer 2 protocol but rather makes use of existing layer 2 technologies like Ethernet, ATM or Frame Relay.
It prevents a network from frame looping by putting some interfaces in forwarding state & some
interfaces in blocking state.
Whenever two or more switches are connected with each other for redundancy purpose loop can occur.
STP Protocol is used to prevent the loop. STP is layer 2 Protocol & by default it is enabled on switches.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
Â
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

5. OSPF Terminology An interface on a router The status of a link between 2 routers A list of info about other routers in the network – shows the topology (also called Link-State database) A collection of network and routers that have the same area identification. Each router has same link-state info. A router in a area is called an internal router. OSPF Terminology Cost is the value assigned to the link, based on the bandwidth
8. OSPF Terminology Routing Table is generated when an algorithm is run on the link-state database. Each router’s table is unique to that router.
9. OSPF Terminology Adjacencies database is a listing of all the neighbors to which a router has established bi-directional communication
10. OSPF Terminology Designated router & backup designated router are routers that are elected by all other routers to represent all the routers. Every network has a DR & a BDR.

16. OSPF Packet Types Acknowledges receipt of a neighbor’s LSA Type 5 – Link-state acknowledgement (LSAck) Transports LSAs to neighbor routers Type 4 – Link-state update (LSU) Requests specific pieces of a router’s LSD Type 3 – Link-state request (LSR) Describes contents of an OSPF router’s link-state database Type 2 – Database description packet (DBD) Estab. & main. Adjacency info w/ neighbors Type 1 – Hello Description OSPF Packet Type

18. OSPF States After loading, routers now fully adjacent. Full Adjacency Link state updates exchanged Loading Routers send each other their databases Exchange Type 2 packets exchanged; master & slave estab. ExStart When a router sees itself in its neighbor’s hello packet Two-Way Hello packets are sent Init Everything down, nothing exchanged Down Definition State
