Configuring OSPF Area Parameters
Single context mode only
Routed firewall mode only
You can configure several area parameters. These area parameters (shown in the following task table)
include setting authentication, defining stub areas, and assigning specific costs to the default summary
route. Authentication provides password-based protection against unauthorized access to an area.
Stub areas are areas into which information on external routes is not sent. Instead, there is a default
external route generated by the area border router, into the stub area for destinations outside the
autonomous system. To take advantage of the OSPF stub area support, default routing must be used in
the stub area. To further reduce the number of LSAs sent into a stub area, you can configure the
no-summary keyword of the area stub command on the area border router to prevent it from sending
summary link advertisement (LSAs type 3) into the stub area.
To specify area parameters for your network, follow these steps:
Step 1 If you have not already done so, enter the router configuration mode for the OSPF process you want to
configure by entering the following command:
FWSM(config)# router ospf process_id
Step 2 Enter any of the following commands:
• To enable authentication for an OSPF area, enter the following command:
FWSM(config-router)# area area-id authentication
• To enable MD5 authentication for an OSPF area, enter the following command:
FWSM(config-router)# area area-id authentication message-digest
