OSPF on MikroTik with LABS (RouterOS v7)

OSPF on MikroTik with LABS (RouterOS v7)

Description

OSPF routing protocol is one the best (if not the best) interior routing protocol that many networks’ companies use it. It has a lot of features and it is very reliable to be configured on our networks’ routers as a routing protocol – that’s the good side of the story.

The bad side of the story: OSPF is a COMPLEX routing protocol to understand and to configure. Many network engineers working with MikroTik products find OSPF difficult and many of them try to replace it with a simple routing protocol which doesn’t requires a lot of IT knowledge such as RIP. That’s the easiest way to solve the problem, but believe it that RIP will become a big issue and will cause for you a lot of problems when your network becomes bigger with many routers.

For this reason, I have planned to design this course to go fully into OSPF and to show you how you can configure it on MikroTik RouterOS v7. During this course, I will pass through all OSPF topics & I will explain them in a very simple way then I will do a LAB on each of those topics to show you how you can configure this on MikroTik.
