Configuring OSPF
Configuring OSPF
This section briefly describes how to configure Open Shortest Path First (OSPF). For a complete
description of the OSPF commands, see the “OSPF Commands” chapter of the
Cisco IOS IP Command
Reference, Volume 2 of 3: Routing Protocols, Release 12.2
.
Note
OSPF classifies different media into broadcast, nonbroadcast, and point-to-point networks. The switch
supports broadcast (Ethernet, Token Ring, and FDDI) and point-to-point networks (Ethernet interfaces
configured as point-to-point links).
OSPF is an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) designed expressly for IP networks, supporting IP
subnetting and tagging of externally derived routing information. OSPF also allows packet
authentication and uses IP multicast when sending and receiving packets. The Cisco implementation
supports RFC 1253, OSPF management information base (MIB).
The Cisco implementation conforms to the OSPF Version 2 specifications with these key features:
•
Definition of stub areas is supported.
•
Routes learned through any IP routing protocol can be redistributed into another IP routing protocol.
At the intradomain level, this means that OSPF can import routes learned through EIGRP and RIP.
OSPF routes can also be exported into RIP.
•
Plain text and MD5 authentication among neighboring routers within an area is supported.
•
Configurable routing interface parameters include interface output cost, retransmission interval,
interface transmit delay, router priority, router dead and hello intervals, and authentication key.
•
Virtual links are supported.
•
Not-so-stubby-areas (NSSAs) per RFC 1587are supported.
OSPF typically requires coordination among many internal routers,
area border routers
(ABRs)
connected to multiple areas, and
autonomous system boundary routers
(ASBRs). The minimum
configuration would use all default parameter values, no authentication, and interfaces assigned to areas.
If you customize your environment, you must ensure coordinated configuration of all routers.
