Area ID Specifies the area ID of the domain to which the interface connects.
Possible values:
4 byte decimal notation (default value:
0.0.0.0
)
The router uses area ID
0.0.0.0
for the OSPF backbone.
Priority Specifies the priority of this interface.
In multi-access networks, the router uses this field in the designated router
election algorithm. If a tie occurs, the routers use their Router ID as a tie
breaker.
Possible values:
0..255
(default setting:
1
)
The value
0
signifies that the router is ineligible from becoming the
designated router on this particular network.
Transmit Delay [s] Specifies the estimated number of seconds it takes to transmit a link state
update packet over this interface.
This setting is useful for low speed links. The timer increases the age of the
LS updates to compensate for estimated delays on the interface. Increasing
the packet age too much results in a reply that is younger than the original
packet.
Possible values:
0..3600
(default setting:
1
)
Retrans Interval
[s]
Specifies the number of seconds between link state advertisement
retransmissions for adjacencies belonging to this interface.
You also use this value when retransmitting database description and link
state request packets.
Possible values:
0..3600
(default setting:
5
)
Hello Interval [s] Specifies the number of seconds between hello packet transmissions on the
interface.
Set this value the same for the routers attached to a common network.
Possible values:
1..65535
(default setting:
10
)
Dead Interval [s] Specifies the number of seconds between received hello packets before a
router declares the neighbor router down.
Specify the value to a multiple of the "Hello Interval [s]". Specify the value
the same for the routers attached to a common network.
Possible values:
0..65535
(default setting:
40
)
The router considers values in excess as unnecessary and the values
are prone to interoperability issues.
