On an OSPF network, routers learn routing information on the entire network by exchanging LSAs.

 LSA Lifetime and Deletion

The LS Age field in the LSA header tracks the age of an LSA. When the LS Age reaches its maximum value (3600 seconds), the LSA is marked for deletion. This ensures old or stale LSAs are removed from the network to maintain accurate routing information.

 HCIP-Datacom-Core Reference

Detailed explanation of LS Age behavior and LSA deletion processes can be found in the OSPF LSDB and LSA sections​​.
