• Status: Overall status of dynamic routing shows:

• Aquired Dynamic Routes: All routes obtained from all enabled dynamic routing protocols.
• BGP Status Information about each BGP neighbor including messages received, sent, and uptime.
• OSPF Status Information about discovered OSPF neighbors such as their IP address and the time remaining until they next synchronize.

Dynamic Routing Status

• BGP: Enable BGP protocol. BGP requires a lot more maintenance than OSPF but because its an older protocol, has wider adoption.

Dynamic Routing BGP

• Neighbors define neighbors here.

• Networks define neighbors here.

• OSPF: A much simpler protocol.

Dynamic Routing OSPF

• Networks define neighbors here.

• Areas define areas here.

• Interface Overrides define interface overrides here.
