OSPF isn’t magic.

Clear, practical, architect-level.

Most engineers memorize OSPF areas.

Few understand why they exist.

Areas aren’t about hierarchy — they’re about containing chaos, limiting SPF blast radius, and keeping your core alive when things flap.

That workday ended up being more like 20 hours thanks to AWS VPN tunnel reload times. Skilling up my guys with training as we go, but do you other #NetEng #NetArch types get resistance with learning? Any tips for how I can help from a non management role?
