3. Configuring OSPF
OSPF can be configured at an interface (brouter port) or VLAN (port or IP-Subnet) level.
In reference to the drawing below, the following configuration steps are used to configure OSPF on
brouter port 2/1 and VLAN2:
Configure OSPF Interface – brouter port
Step 1
config ethernet 2/1 ip create 10.1.1.21/30
2134
config ethernet 2/1 ip ospf enable
Configure OSPF Interface – VLAN
Step 2
config vlan 2 create byport 1
config vlan 2 ports add 1/2
config vlan 2 ip create 172.3.1.1/24
config vlan 2 ip ospf enable
Step 3
Configure a Circuitless IP address
config ip circuitless-ip-int
1.1.1.1/32
config ip circuitless-ip-int
enable
Step 4
Enable OSPF Globally
config ip ospf router-id 1.1.1.1
config ip ospf enable

These two commands configure port 2/1 as a brouter
port with VLAN ID 2134 and enables OSPF on this
interface.
These commands create port-based VLAN 2 under STG
1 with OSPF.
This step creates a circuitless IP address which will be
used for the OSPF Router-ID
These commands enable OSPF and assigns the
Circuitless IP created in Step 3 as the OSPF Router-ID
