OSPF processing on a <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong><br />

<strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> in an OSPF network topology<br />

Essentially there are two choices for locating the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong><br />

within the OSPF network topology.<br />

the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> within OSPF area 0 backbone<br />

the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> within OSPF area n<br />

The first choice, shown in Figure C-3, extends the AS backbone<br />

through the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong>. Any area boundary external is to the<br />

<strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong>.<br />

The second choice, shown in Figure C-4, runs a non-backbone area<br />

through the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong>, placing the backbone completely internal.<br />

This second option is preferable for security policy reasons, but may<br />

not be practical without re-engineering the OSPF network.<br />
