Chapter 1 Configuring IP Unicast Routing
Configuring OSPF
Use the no form of these commands to remove the configured parameter value or to return to the
default value.
Configuring Other OSPF Parameters
You can optionally configure other OSPF parameters in router configuration mode.
• Route summarization: When redistributing routes from other protocols as described in the “Using
Route Maps to Redistribute Routing Information” section on page 1-96 , each route is advertised
individually in an external LSA. To help decrease the size of the OSPF link state database, you can
use the
summary-address router configuration command to advertise a single router for all the
redistributed routes included in a specified network address and mask.
•
Virtual links: In OSPF, all areas must be connected to a backbone area. You can establish a virtual
link in case of a backbone-continuity break by configuring two Area Border Routers as endpoints
of a virtual link. Configuration information includes the identity of the other virtual endpoint (the
other ABR) and the nonbackbone link that the two routers have in common (the transit area). Virtual
links cannot be configured through a stub area.
• Default route: When you specifically configure redistribution of routes into an OSPF routing
domain, the route automatically becomes an autonomous system boundary router (ASBR). You can
force the ASBR to generate a default route into the OSPF routing domain.
•
Domain Name Server (DNS) names for use in all OSPF show privileged EXEC command displays
makes it easier to identify a router than displaying it by router ID or neighbor ID.
• Default Metrics: OSPF calculates the OSPF metric for an interface according to the bandwidth of
the interface. The metric is calculated as
ref-bw divided by bandwidth, where ref is 10 by default,
and bandwidth ( bw ) is specified by the bandwidth interface configuration command. For multiple
links with high bandwidth, you can specify a larger number to differentiate the cost on those links.
Step 6
area area-id nssa [ no-redistribution ]
[ default-information-originate ]
[ no-summary ]
(Optional) Defines an area as a not-so-stubby-area. Every router
within the same area must agree that the area is NSSA. Select one of
these keywords:
•
no-redistribution —Select when the router is an NSSA ABR and
you want the redistribute command to import routes into normal
areas, but not into the NSSA.
• default-information-originate —Select on an ABR to allow
importing type 7 LSAs into the NSSA.
•
no-redistribution —Select to not send summary LSAs into the
NSSA.
Step 7 area area-id range address mask (Optional) Specify an address range for which a single route is
advertised. Use this command only with area border routers.
Step 8 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 9
show ip ospf [ process-id ]
show ip ospf [ process-id [ area-id ]] database
Display information about the OSPF routing process in general or for
a specific process ID to verify configuration.
Display lists of information related to the OSPF database for a
specific router.
Step 10 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
