Step 1
In node view, click the
Provisioning
>
Network
>
OSPF
tabs.
Step 2
On the top left side of the OSPF tab, complete the following:
•
DCC/GCC OSPF Area ID Table—In dotted decimal format, enter the number that identifies the
ONS 15454s as a unique OSPF area ID. The Area ID can be any number between 000.000.000.000
and 255.255.255.255, but must be unique to the LAN OSPF area.
•
SDCC Metric—This value is normally unchanged. It sets a cost for sending packets across the
Section DCC, which is used by OSPF routers to calculate the shortest path. This value should always
be higher than the LAN metric. The default SDCC metric is 100.
•
LDCC Metric—Sets a cost for sending packets across the Line DCC. This value should always be
lower than the SDCC metric. The default LDCC metric is 33. It is usually not changed.
Step 3
In the OSPF on LAN area, complete the following:
•
OSPF active on LAN—When checked, enables the ONS 15454 OSPF topology to be advertised to
OSPF routers on the LAN. Enable this field on ONS 15454s that directly connect to OSPF routers.
•
LAN Port Area ID—Enter the OSPF area ID (dotted decimal format) for the router port where the
ONS 15454 is connected. (This number is different from the DCC/GCC OSPF area ID.)
Step 4
By default, OSPF is set to No Authentication. If the OSPF router requires authentication, complete the
following steps. If not, continue with
.
a.
Click the
No Authentication
button.
b.
In the Edit Authentication Key dialog box, complete the following:
•
Type—Choose
Simple Password
.
•
Enter Authentication Key—Enter the password.
•
Confirm Authentication Key—Enter the same password to confirm it.
c.
Click
OK
.
The authentication button label changes to Simple Password.
Step 5
Provision the OSPF priority and interval settings.
The OSPF priority and interval defaults are ones most commonly used by OSPF routers. Verify that these
defaults match the ones used by the OSPF router where the ONS 15454 is connected.
•
Router Priority—Selects the designated router for a subnet.
Purpose
This task enables the OSPF routing protocol on the ONS 15454. Perform
this task if you want to include the ONS 15454 in OSPF-enabled networks.
Tools/Equipment
