OSPF

An OSPF package using the Quagga routing daemon is also available. As with BGP, to install it:

• Navigate to System > Package Manager
• Click Available PackagesLocate Quagga_OSPF in the list, or search for it
• Click the  Install to the right of the Quagga_OSPF package entry.
• Click  ConfirmWait for the installation to complete
• Navigate to Services > Quagga OSPF

OSPF is also a fairly complex routing protocol, though not as complex to setup as BGP can be. The details of configuring OSPFD are also outside the scope of this documentation, though for someone accustomed to OSPF the configuration options found in the GUI will be familiar.

The general form of configuration for the Quagga OSPF package is:

• Add interfaces as needed, with local interface subnets being marked passive, and those facing other OSPF routers as active.
• Configure the general settings as needed with the router ID, area ID, and so on.
