Usage
Information
Although the passive interface does not send or receive routing updates, the
network on that interface is still included in OSPF updates sent using other
interfaces.
The
default
keyword sets all interfaces as passive. You can then configure
individual interfaces, where adjacencies are desired, using the
no passive-
interface
interface
command. The
no
form of this command is inserted into
the configuration for individual interfaces when the
no passive-interface
interface
command is issued while
passive-interface default
is
configured.
This command behavior has changed as follows:
passive-interface
interface
• The previous
no passive-interface
interface
is removed from the
running configuration.
