  • Who: Send to all nodes
  • What: Send Link state packet (LSP) about direct connected links
  • When: Periodically or when a change occurs (triggered)

The point is that Local information is distributed globally.

The LSP information recieved is used to create a graph of the network. Then routing is easy because we use DijkstrasAlgorithm, to find the shortest path. See attach:cse952lec03.pd

Uses OpenShortestPathFirst OSPF algorithm
