Command
Description
Configure the network type of
the OSPF interface
ospf network-type

Optional
By default, the network
type of an interface
depends on the physical
interface.
Note:
z
After an interface has been configured with a new network type, the original network
type of the interface is removed automatically.

Note that, neighboring relationship can be established between two interfaces
configured as broadcast, NBMA, or P2MP only if the interfaces are on the same
network segment.
4.5.3 Setting an NBMA Neighbor
Some special configurations need to be done on an NBMA network. Since an NBMA
interface cannot discover the adjacent router by broadcasting Hello packets, you must
manually specify the IP address of the adjacent router for the interface and whether the
adjacent router has the right to vote.
