OSPF Monitoring: Architecture, Design, and Deployment Experience

Improving IP control plane (routing) robustness is critical to the creation of reliable and stable IP services. Yet very few tools exist for effective IP route monitoring and management. We describe the architecture, design and deployment of a monitoring system for OSPF, an IP intradomain routing protocol in wide use. The architecture has three components, separating the capture of raw LSAs (Link State Advertisements
