In this lesson we take a look at Hello Packets and explore all the items they contain. Understanding the content of a Hello packet will show us the requirements for OSPF Routers to become Neighbors with each other.
The Hello packet also includes Area Type and BDR/DR/Priority, which allows us to explain the ideas of Stub areas and Not So Stubby Areas (NSSA). As well as the concepts of the Designated Router (DR), Backup Designated Router (BDR), and the Priority Number.
Here are all the contents of a Hello packet that are explained: Router ID, Area ID, Authentication Data, Network Mask, Hello Interval, Dead Interval, Area Type, Priority Number, Designated Router, Backup Designated Router, and Active Neighbors fields.
