www.dell.com | support.dell.com If you require the RFC 2328 flooding behavior, enable it by using the flood-2328 command in ROUTER OSPF mode. When you enable RFC 2328 flooding, this command configures FTOS to flood LSAs on all interfaces. To confirm RFC 2328 flooding behavior, use debug ip ospf packet command and look for output similar to the following (Figure 20-4). Figure 20-4.

Figure 20-5. Enabling RFC-2328 Compliant OSPF Flooding FTOS#show ip ospf Routing Process ospf 1 with ID 2.2.2.2 Supports only single TOS (TOS0) routes It is an Autonomous System Boundary Router It is Flooding according to RFC 2328 SPF schedule delay 5 secs, Hold time between two SPFs 10 secs Number of area in this router is 1, normal 0 stub 0 nssa 1 --More-- OSPF ACK Packing The OSPF ACK Packing feature bundles multiple LS acknowledgements in a single packet, significantly reducing the number of ACK packets transmitted when the number of LSAs increases. This feature also enhances network utilization and reduces the number of small ACK packets sent to a neighboring router. OSPF ACK packing is enabled by default and is non-configurable. 364 | Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv2)
