Summary: | A network using an open shortest path first (OSPF) protocol includes a routing table for transferring an active packet; and a plurality of active nodes. The plurality of active nodes generates an opaque link state advertisement (LSA) having active network topology information and floods the generated opaque LSA to nodes through the OSPF domain. The active nodes also receives an opaque LSA transferred from the nodes and, then, updates the routing table for transferring the active packet based on the received opaque LSA. |
