You can specify a global router ID, or specify a router ID when you create an OSPF process.
•
If you specify a router ID when you create an OSPF process, any two routers in an AS must
have different router IDs. A common practice is to specify the IP address of an interface as the
router ID.
•
If you specify no router ID when you create the OSPF process, the global router ID is used. As
a best practice, specify a router ID when you create the OSPF process.
OSPF supports multiple processes and VPNs.
•
To run multiple OSPF processes, you must specify an ID for each process. The process IDs
take effect locally and has no influence on packet exchange between routers. Two routers with
different process IDs can exchange packets.
•
You can configure an OSPF process to run in a specified VPN instance. For more information
about VPN, see MPLS Configuration Guide.

interface IP address is available, the
highest physical interface IP address is
used, regardless of the interface status (up
or down).
