Release 5.1, Revision 0 Copyright © 2001, Juniper Networks, Inc. Advanced Juniper Networks Routing Module 3: OSPF NSSA

Copyright © 2001, Juniper Networks, Inc. Module Objectives Review the basic components of the OSPF Protocol Discuss the OSPF neighbor hello protocol and adjacency formation process Examine the function of the Link-State Database (LSDB) and how it contributes routes to the routing table Look at the different kinds of OSPF packet types Configure OSPF on a Juniper Networks router

OSPF Not-So-Stubby Areas Allows a stub area to contain external routing information from a local ASBR – ASBR injects Type 7 LSAs into NSSA – ABR converts Type 7 to Type 5 and floods into backbone Reachability for other external routes is via a 0/0 default route injected by the ABR – Manual configuration step for administrator control Virtual links can’t transit a NSSA

Copyright © 2001, Juniper Networks, Inc. OSPF NSSA No-Summaries Behaves like a stub no-summaries area – ABR does not inject Type 3 LSA from backbone into area – ASBR injects Type 7 LSAs into NSSA – ABR converts Type 7 to Type 5 and floods into backbone Reachability for other external routes is still via a 0/0 default route injected by the ABR – Again, a manual configuration step for administrator control Virtual links can’t transit a no-summaries NSSA

Copyright © 2001, Juniper Networks, Inc. NSSA Configuration Each router in the area is required to configure itself as a NSSA router The ABR can optionally inject a default route via the default-metric command – Within the default-lsa configuration hierarchy [edit protocols ospf area ] show nssa; interface so-0/0/0.0; [edit protocols ospf area ] show nssa { default-lsa default-metric 10; } interface so-0/1/1.0;

Copyright © 2001, Juniper Networks, Inc. NSSA No-Summaries Configuration Only the ABR is required to configure itself to support a no-summaries area The ABR can optionally inject a default route via the default-metric command – Within the default-lsa configuration hierarchy Default is a Type 3 LSA by default with no-summaries – Can be a Type 7 LSA with the type-7 keyword [edit protocols ospf] show area { nssa { default-lsa { default-metric 10; type-7; } no-summaries; } interface so-0/1/1.0; }

Copyright © 2001, Juniper Networks, Inc. Area-Range All ASBR Type 7 routes are forwarded to the backbone by default To summarize routing information, use the area- range command within the NSSA configuration A Type 5 LSA will be injected into the backbone Configured on the ABR only [edit protocols ospf] set area 1 nssa area-range /20 [edit protocols ospf] show area { nssa { default-lsa default-metric 10; area-range /20; } interface so-0/1/1.0; }

Copyright © 2001, Juniper Networks, Inc. Area-Range Restrict Adding the restrict keyword to the area-range command stops all routes in the range from entering the backbone No Type 3 LSA will be injected into the backbone Configured on the ABR only [edit protocols ospf] set area 1 nssa area-range /20 restrict [edit protocols ospf] show area { nssa { default-lsa default-metric 10; area-range /20 restrict; } interface so-0/1/1.0; }
