OSPF non-stop routing

The graceful restart feature supported by open shortest path first (OSPF) maintains area topology and
dataflow. Though the network requires neighboring routers to support graceful restart and perform
hitless failover, the graceful restart feature may not be supported by all routers in the network. To
eliminate this dependency, the non-stop routing (NSR) feature is supported on Brocade devices. NSR
does not require support from neighboring routers to perform hitless failover. NSR does not support
virtual link, so traffic loss is expected while performing hitless failover.

NSR does not require support from neighboring

routers to perform hitless failover.

If the active management module fails, the standby management module takes over and maintains the
current OSPF routes, link-state advertisements (LSAs), and neighbor adjacencies, so that there is no
loss of existing traffic to the OSPF destination.
