-Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)
--------------------------------
+OSPF
+----
-Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a routing protocol for Internet Protocol
-(IP) networks. It uses a link state routing (LSR) algorithm and falls into the
-group of interior gateway protocols (IGPs), operating within a single autonomous
-system (AS). It is defined as OSPF Version 2 in RFC2328_ (1998) for IPv4. Updates
-for IPv6 are specified as OSPF Version 3 in RFC5340_ (2008). OSPF supports the
-Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) addressing model.
