Robert,
You are correct. Think of it this way, there first has to be a table
to populate before OSPF can populate it, so when the startup configuration
is read, the router takes the ip address statements from the interfaces,
along with any static routes, and creates the initial routing tabl
Correction (I am correcting myself)
Actually it goes like this:
- Neighbors are Established
Down State
Init State
2way State (bidirection communication established)
- DR/BDR Election
ExStart State (DR/BDR election done)
- Routing Table is Generated
Loading (Sending LSU's
Generating candidate routes for a routing table is an OSPF function in this
context, not a router function. For that reason you need to think only
about when in the OSPF state machine are DR/BDR roles detected/elected. In
general, this occurs on a per segment basis when an ospf speaking route
yes.
