The authentication mode.
Key Chain
The authentication key chain.
String
The authentication string.
4. On the
Interface Parameters
form, configure the following parameter(s) as required:
Parameter
Description
Passive Interface
The specified interface is set to passive mode. In passive mode, all received packets are
processed normally and RIPd sends neither multicast nor unicast RIP packets except to
RIP neighbors specified with a neighbor element.
Receive Version
Synopsis:
1, 2, 1,2, 2,1
The version of RIP packets that will be accepted on this interface. By default, version 1
and version 2 packets will be accepted.
Send Version
Synopsis:
1, 2, 1,2, 2,1
The version of RIP to send packets with. By default, version 2 packets will be sent.
Split Horizon
Synopsis:
yes, no, poisoned-reverse
Default:

Section 5.21
Managing OSPF
The Open Path Shortest First (OSPF) protocol determines the best path for routing IP traffic over a TCP/IP
network based on link cost and quality. Unlike static routing, OSPF takes link failures and other network topology
changes into account. OSPF also differs from RIP in that it provides less router to router update traffic.
The ROX II OSPF daemon (ospfd) is an
[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2178] compliant implementation of
OSPF version 2. The daemon also adheres to the Opaque LSA (
[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2370]) and
ABR-Types (
[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3509]) extensions.
OSPF network design usually involves partitioning a network into a number of self-contained areas. The areas
are chosen to minimize intra-area router traffic, making more manageable and reducing the number of advertised
routes. Area numbers are assigned to each area. All routers in the area are known as Area routers. If traffic must
flow between two areas a router with links in each area is selected to be an Area Border router, and serves as a
gateway.
NOTE
The
Router ID
parameter defines the ID of the router. By default this is the highest IP assigned to the
router. It is recommended to configure this value manually to avoid the ID changing if interfaces are
added or deleted from the router. During elections for the master router, the ID is one of the values
