OSPF RFC compliance

The OSFP features covered in this guide comply with the following:
  • RFC 2328 OSPF version 2

  • RFC 3101 OSPF NSSA option (s/w release K.12.xx and greater)

  • RFC 1583 (Enabled in the default OSPF configuration. See the following Note.)

  • RFC 4750 MIB variables.

NOTE:

If all of the routers in your OSPF domain support RFC 2178, RFC 2328, or later, you should disable RFC 1583 compatibility on all routers in the domain.
