The comprehensive reference for OSPF network design and deployment bull; Understand the full dynamics of OSPF network components, how they interact with one another, and how to configure them Increase... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Nice job! This book is not for the person that just wants a surface knowledge of OSPF. This book talks about many details, and shows how to implement OSPF in a variety of network situations. It is well written, and shows many examples. There are very good "down to earth" CASE STUDYs that show how an implementation can work, and how it would look on each router.In addition, the book opens with a large amount of theory, explaining OSPF from the RFC point of view. It compares the protocol (briefly) with others, such as EIGRP. If you really want to understand how OSPF works, or HOW to make it work, this is a good reference or study-guide.This book makes me a believer in the CISCO PRESS.
This book is practical, relevant, and fun to read.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who needs to learn OSPF, especially anyone implementing OSPF. It is well worth the money! You might think that at 800 pages it would include a lot of basic theory, but it doesn't. It is 800 pages of useful and practical implementation-oriented information. The FAQs at the end of each chapter are especially helpful. The FAQs themselves are probably worth $55!
OSPF .... for DUMMIES !!

For DUMMIES....well not exactly. This book is a practical guide to OSPF from Cisco's point of view. If only work with Cisco routers then this book with be worth its weight in gold. If you are looking for a universal overview you might want to check John Moy's book. PEACE !!
In depth analysis of OSPF protocol Design and Implementation
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book is very well organized and the flow keeps the students interested all the time. It discusses the protocol architecture, design and implementation with real life examples. In fact,I used the Frame-relay point-to-point examples in my lecture notes. I'd recommed this book to anyone who desires to understand the indepth analysis of OSPF protocol from a design and implementation perspective. Its an excellent book for people migrating their networks from other IP routing protocols to OSPF.
