What is an OD file

OD files mostly belong to Mascopt by INRIA/UNSA. OD is a file used by the open-source Mascopt project that provides a set of tools for network optimization problems like routing, grooming, survivability, or virtual network design.

File generation: When generating network diagnostics files using the GOd format, two files will be generated: a GRAPH file and an OD file. The networks are represented by graphs so the files represent the graphs themselves, and the requests, respectively.
File structure: The OD file contains the request on the graph which it describes. It is written in ASCII, with some special markdown: "c" is used at the beginning of a line to denote a comment, and "r" is used at the beginning of a line to denote a request. The requests a listed one after another, with comments possible at any line in the file.
Related associations: OD could also refer to a Office diagnostics file. It's usually auto-saved after an error and can be opened easily via a text editor after renaming it and changing its extension to TXT.

Can't Open Your .OD File? Try These Steps

Because .OD files can originate from various programs, they aren't universally openable.

Identify the Source: If received from a network researcher, it may be a Mascopt graph request file. If from a developer, it might be an object definition file.
Check the Header: Open the file in a text editor or hex viewer to inspect the first bytes:
- Readable XML tags often imply a Mascopt data file.
- "PK" indicates a zipped archive.
- Binary gibberish suggests a proprietary format.
Use the Original Software: Opening it usually requires the original program, like Mascopt (by INRIA/UNSA) or an XML editor; if uncertain, ask the sender.
