Love that kind of video, but I was thinking for a while why a lot of cisco youtubers use particularly eigrp in their demos for dynamic routing? Doen't ospf suit better for examples? Think it's more suitable for contemporary world given that nowadays companies have a variety of network equiment and non all of them can use eigrp.
Thank you very much for the comment! To answer your question - I myself normally use OSPF as the IGP for pretty much every single design/lab; this video was one exception though... I wanted to show how a routing protocol automatically creates a route to null0 when you summarize, and OSPF just wasn't the best example since you can only summarize on a ABR or ASBR. With that being said, I do agree with you... I believe that OSPF is more suitable for examples, especially since it is more widely used in the real world. Like you said - "nowadays companies have a variety of network equipment", and that is a good point. Additionally, when it comes to stuff like VXLAN with a BGP EVPN overlay, OSPF or IS-IS is going to be used as the underlay all day long. Now, as to why a lot of Cisco youtubers frequently use EIGRP in their demos... probably just because they're Cisco fans, I'm assuming. I'm a Cisco fan as well, but over time I have started to become more vendor agnostic. Arista, Juniper, Brocade, and Palo Alto (just to name a few), also offer some very reliable and extremely robust products. And again, like you mentioned, you're probably going to see a lot of these devices running the infrastructure for a lot of companies. So yeah, in the IGP world, I think OSPF is the clear winner here.
Hey this was a great video. Not sure if it's just me that would benefit from this but is it possible to increase the font when working on the console? Thanks for sharing this none the less 🙌🏿
OSPF is a little bit different, since you can't summarize within an area. With that being said, the ABR or ASBR that creates the summary route will create the null0 route to prevent routing loops. Hope this helps!
My favorite RUclipsr when it comes to networking!
bro, you are an absolute god amongst men
Null0 gave me a little headache, but all clear NOW ! Thank you! Appreciated!
Favorite RUclipsr! Tis true

Thank you very much! I'll also make sure the font size is increased in future videos. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
Do ospf create the same null0....or we need to create it manually

@@RMTechCentral great 😃... Thank you
You’re very welcome!
