The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) stack is a portable implementation
of the OSPF specification version 2, as specified in the RFC
2328. It runs directly over IP and interfaces with SNMP for
configuration and control purposes. The OSPF software implements
a link state routing algorithm and maintains a routing table,
which is referred to by IP when forwarding packets. The OSPF
software reduces the time-to-market for OEMs and VARs who
wish to incorporate the IP routing functionality in their
products.
