For all entries in the database that match one of the following

router’s links to the area and are only flooded within a
particular area.
• Network Links
- These packets are generated by
Designated Routers and describe the set of routers attached
to a particular network.
• Summary Network

Area Border Routers and describe inter-area routes to
various networks. Then can also be used for aggregating
routes.

Summary AS border - This describes links to Autonomous
System Border Routers and are generated by Area Border
Routers.

System Border Routers and describe routes to destination
external to the Autonomous system. They are flooded
everywhere except stub areas.
•Multicast group - These packets are generated by multicast
groups.
• NSSA external - These packets are generated by Area
Border Routers and describe routes within the NSSA
