Protocols that Use Link-State

Only two routing protocols use link-state: Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS). Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) share many similarities and differences. Both routing protocols provide the necessary routing functionality. Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol

Link-State Routing Protocol

Link-state routing protocols are also known as shortest-path first protocols. They maintain a complete picture of all the routers running a link-state routing protocol in the complete network. All routers running a link-state routing protocol originate information about themselves and their directly connected routers, links, and the state of those links as multicast messages. The
