Toggle ON to enable OSPF.
Displays the physical network interface on which OSPFv2 is Enabled/Disabled.
Enter the area to which the interface belongs. Two controllers having a common segment;
their interfaces have to belong to the same area on that segment. The interfaces should
belong to the same subnet and have similar mask.
Helps to determine the OSPFv2 designated controller for a network. The controller with the
highest priority will be more eligible to become Designated Controller. Setting the value to
0 makes the controller ineligible to become Designated Controller. The default value is 1.
Lower the value means higher the priority.
The number of seconds for Hello Interval timer value. Enter the number in seconds that
the Hello packet will be sent. This value must be the same for all controllers attached to a
common network. The default value is 10 seconds.
The number of seconds that a device's hello packets must not have been seen before its
neighbors declare the OSPF controller down. This value must be the same for all controllers
attached to a common network. The default value is 40 seconds. OSPF requires these
intervals to be exactly the same between two neighbors. If any of these intervals are
different, these controllers will not become neighbors on a particular segment.
Enter the cost of sending a packet on an OSPFv2 interface.
Select one of the following authentication types:
• None: The interface does not authenticate OSPF packets.
• Simple: OSPF packets are authenticated using simple text key.
• MD5: The interface authenticates OSPF packets with MD5 authentication.
If MD5 authentication is selected, enter the MD5 key ID.
