DGS-3610(config-router)# end
28.2.2 Configuring the OSPF Interface
Parameters
The OSPF allows you to change some particular interface parameters. You can set such
parameters as needed. It should be noted that some parameters must be set to match those
of the adjacent router of the interface. These parameters are set via the ip ospf hello-interval,
ip ospf dead-interval, ip ospf authentication, ip ospf authentication-key and ip ospf
message-digest-key. When you use these commands, you should make sure that the
adjacent routers have the same configuration.
To configure the OSPF interface parameters, execute the following commands in the
interface configuration mode:
DGS-3610# configure terminal
Enter the global configuration mode.
DGS-3610(config)# ip routing
Enable the routing function (if disabled)
DGS-3610(config)# interface
[interface-id]
Enter the interface configuration mode.
DGS-3610(config-if)# ip ospf cost
cost-value
(Optional) Define the interface cost
DGS-3610(config)# ip ospf
retransmit-interval seconds
(Optional) Set the link status retransmission interval;
DGS-3610(config)# ip ospf
transmit-delay seconds
(Optional) Set the transmit estimated time for the link status
update packets;
DGS-3610(config)# ip ospf
hello-interval seconds
(Optional) Set the sending interval of hello packet. For the
nodes of the whole network, this value should be the same.
DGS-3610(config)# ip ospf
dead-interval seconds
(Optional) Set the dead interval for the adjacent device,
which must be the same for all the nodes of the entire
network;
DGS-3610(config)# ip ospf
priority number
(Optional) The priority is used to select the dispatched
devices (DR) and backup dispatched devices (BDR).
DGS-3610(config)# ip ospf
authentication
[message-digest | null]
(Optional) Set the authentication method on the network
interface.
DGS-3610(config)# ip ospf
authentication-key key
(Optional) Configure the key for text authentication of the
interface
DGS-3610(config-if)#ip ospf
message-digest-key keyid md5 key
(Optional) Configure the key for MD5 authentication of the
interface
