How is OSPF Done?

Step > 1

"Settings Mode > Network > Route Tables" steps are followed. On the screen that opens, the Add button is clicked.

Step > 2

On the screen that opens, the "Dynamic Route Table" button is activated. The dynamic route protocols supported by the Dynamic TR7 ASP are listed.

Step > 3

FRR Mode: "traditional" is selected. "OSPFD" is activated. Add button is clicked and saved.

Step > 4

"Settings Mode > Network > DOS/DDOS Mitigation" steps are followed. On the screen that opens, the route table created in the previous step is selected. By clicking the Editing Disabled button, the editing mode is activated.

Step > 5

Allow ICMP traffic > ENABLE Drop invalid packets > DISABLED Block new not SYN packets > DISABLED Drop SYN with suspicious MSS > DISABLED Drop bogus TCP packets > DISABLED Drop fragment packets > DISABLED

After the configurations are completed, the Save button is clicked. It is checked that the relevant changes are saved for the relevant route table.

Step > 6

"Setting Mode > Network > Interfaces" steps are followed. The relevant Interfaces are edited and added to the route table defined in "OSPFD". (Ex: 10G-1 -10G-2 Interfaces)

Step > 7

By editing the relevant interfaces (10G-1 – 10G-2), IP definitions are made for both interfaces.

Step > 8

"Setting Mode > Network > Firewall" steps are followed. Add button is clicked. OSPFD" protocol for the relevant Route Table OSPF "ALLOW" is activated. Add button is used to add the relevant firewall rule.
