BGP vs. OSPF

[ilnaiduccna]

I need a better information on BGP vs. OSPF

We have a enterprise network, all locations connected through MPLS and DMVPN for internet and BGP was running on both links. Recently one third party guy Mr. Thomas advised my management (who helped at starting this network build) to convert from BGP to OSPF, still I opposed to his advise as....

1. OSPF will consume more bandwidth than BGP

2. Need to create so many areas and the same time update between those areas will become delay

3. OSPF required periodic update where BGP do not required

Here could you give better things about BGP than OSPF and I need your high priority help to prove it at my management.

Thanks in Advance

Regards,

Naidu.

Hello Naidu,

it has been a nice interaction indeed.

My suggestion is to go on on using the forums because everyone here has also a main job, so you can find help from multiple people and share your findings.

The forums are an excellent social network.

if you want to write me you can easily guess my company e-mail:

name.surname@company.mycountry

I can provide you some suggestions/opinions but of course, for time limits, I cannot go into deep details of your projects.

Hope to help

Giuseppe
