Flooding in full-mesh topology is a big concern for network-design experts, especially in large-scale OSPF deployments. When the link or node fails in an OSPF network, failure information is flooded everywhere in the same area. If Flat OSPF network design is used, then the problem gets bigger. Each router receives at least one copy of the new information from […]

EIGRP Hub and Spoke – EIGRP is the best protocol in Hub and Spoke topologies because of many reasons. In this article, I will explain the design consideration for EIGRP in a Hub and Spoke topology, also known as star topologies. Figure – 1 EIGRP Hub and Spoke In Figure – 1, EIGRP runs […]

Companies don’t always have high availability. What’s more, there is always a concern of budget and complexity with the high availability even though a number of factors need to be considered during network design. If the applications of the company do not require high availability, dual carrier or two links to the same carrier is not […]

If you design multi level IS-IS network and if you have more than one exit (L1-L2 routers) from the Level 1 domain, you will likely create a suboptimal routing. Multi-level IS-IS design is for large-scale network. What’s more, most of the real life networks use only flat Level 2 IS-IS as their interior gateway protocol (IGP).

Dual core design, also known as dual plane or disjoint plane topologies, refers to a highly redundant network chosen by companies whose main objective is to improve the resiliency of their network. Created using different data planes, dual core design is implemented by companies that receive the service from the different service providers. Put simply, […]

CCDE is the de facto expert level, vendor neutral, and infrastructure network design certification in the industry. I have been helping to CCDE community for a while through my packet pushers articles and podcasts. I started couple months before to write about network design and CCDE related articles on my blog http://orhanergun.net as well. […]

OSPF Open shortest path first is a dynamic routing protocol which creates a topology between the routers to distribute routing information inside an Autonomous system. If you are not familiar with OSPF, don’t worry ! In this article OSPF will be explained in great detail. Are you interested in design aspect of OSPF, many OSPF design examples will […]
