OSPF is a link-state intra-domain routing protocol used in IP networks.
LSDB synchronization in OSPF is achieved via two methods-- initial LSDB
synchronization when an OSPF router has just been connected to the network
and asynchronous flooding that ensures continuous LSDB synchronization in
the presence of topology changes after the initial procedure was completed.
It may sometime be necessary for OSPF routers to resynchronize their LSDBs.
OSPF standard, however, does not allow routers to do so without actually
changing the topology view of the network. This memo describes a vendor
specific mechanism to perform such form of out-of-band LSDB
synchronization.
