config ospf ipif
passive}
Description
This command is used to configure the OSPF interface settings.
Parameters
<ipif_name 12>
−
The name of the IP interface.
all
- All IP interfaces.
area <area_id>
- A 32-bit number in the form of an IP address
(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) that uniquely identifies the OSPF area in the OSPF
domain.
priority <value>
−
The priority used in the election of the Designated
Router (DR). A number between 0 and 255.
hello_interval <sec 1-65535>
−
Allows the specification of the interval
between the transmission of OSPF Hello packets, in seconds. Between
1 and 65535 seconds can be specified. The Hello Interval, Dead
Interval, Authorization Type, and Authorization Key should be the same
for all routers on the same network.
dead_interval <sec 1-65535>
−
Allows the specification of the length of
time between the receipt of Hello packets from a neighbor router before
the selected area declares that router down. An interval between 1 and
65535 seconds can be specified. The Dead Interval must be evenly
divisible by the Hello Interval.
metric <value 1-65535 >
−
The interface metric (1 to 65535). Entering a
0 will allow automatic calculation of the metric.
authentication
– Enter the type of authentication preferred. The user
may choose between:
•
none
– Choosing this parameter will require no authentication.
•
simple <password 8>
−
Choosing this parameter will set a
simple authentication which includes a case-sensitive
password of no more than 8 characters.
•
md5 <key_id 1-255>
−
Choosing this parameter will set
authentication based on md5 encryption. A previously
configured MD5 key ID (1 to 255) is required.
metric <value 1-65535>
−
This field allows the entry of a number
between 1 and 65,535 that is representative of the OSPF cost of
reaching the selected OSPF interface. The default metric is 1.
state [enable | disable]
– Used to enable or disable this function.
active | passive –
This parameter is used to assign the designated entry
to be an active or passive interface. The default is
active
.

To configure OSPF interface settings:
DES-3800:admin#config ospf ipif System priority 2 hello_interval
15 metric 2 state enable
Command: config ospf ipif System priority 2 hello_interval 15
metric 2 state enable
Success.
DES-3800:admin#
show ospf ipif
Purpose
