config ospf virtual_link
Purpose
Used to configure the OSPF virtual interface settings.
Syntax
config ospf virtual_link <area_id> <neighbor_id> {hello_interval
<sec 1-65535> | dead_interval <sec 1-65535> | authentication
[none | simple <password 8> | md5 <key_id 1-255>]}
Description
This command is used to configure the OSPF virtual interface settings.
Parameters
<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.
<neighbor_id>
−
The OSPF router ID for the remote area. This is a 32-
bit number in the form of an IP address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) that uniquely
identifies the remote area’s Area Border Router.
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.
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.
Restrictions
Only Administrator-level users can issue this command.
Usage example:
To configure the OSPF virtual interface settings:
DES-3800:admin#config ospf virtual_link 10.1.1.2 20.1.1.1
hello_interval 10
Command: config ospf virtual_link 10.1.1.2 20.1.1.1
hello_interval 10
Success.
