Parent topics
- Internet Protocol [r]: Highly resilient protocol for messages sent across the internet, first by being broken into smaller packets (each with the endpoint address attached), then moving among many mid-points by unpredictable routes, and finally being reassembled into the original message at the endpoint. IP version 4 (IPv4) is from 1980 but lacked enough addresses for the entire world and was superseded by IP version 6 (IPv6) in 1998. [e]
- Route aggregation [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Routing [r]: The process of receiving a packet on one interface of a router, validating the packet and forwarding it out the appropriate interface. [e]
Subtopics
General
- Routing backbone [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Stub network [r]: A part of a network topology that can be used to reach hosts local to it, not other networks; the concept applies to both Internet Protocol version 4 and Internet Protocol version 6 [e]
OSPF-specific
- Backbone area [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Area 0.0.0.0 [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Stub area [r]: Part of an Open Shortest Path First routing domain, a lower-level hierarchical area that is not generally not intended for transit, and receives only default and inter-area routes from the backbone [e]
- Totally stubby area [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Not-so-stubby area [r]: Add brief definition or description
