'''''OSPF (Open Shortest Path First)''''' is a link-state routing protocol that was defined in <nowiki>RFC 2328</nowiki> in 1998. It is one of the most widely used Interior Gateway Protocols (IGP). It is frequently used in conjunction with BGP for MPLS networks. It is used to route within a single routing domain (i.e., autonomous system - AS) and BGP is used to interconnect autonomous systems. OSPF Version 2 is limited to IPv4. When utilizing OSPF for routing within a regional ESInet, it is a best practice to utilize OSPF Version 3 which includes support for IPv6.
A routing protocol for Internet Protocol (IP) networks to find the best path for packets to travel.
