OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) can theoretically support up to 250 routers in a single area. However, the practical limit is often lower, typically around 50 to 60 routers per area, to maintain optimal performance and reduce overhead. It's recommended to design OSPF networks with fewer routers per area to enhance stability and manageability.
