choosing Simple authentication, a Password must be entered. When choosing MD5
authentication, a Key ID must be entered.
Specifies whether to enable or disable the administrative state.
Specifies the area to which the interface is assigned. An Area ID is a 32-bit number in the
form of an IP address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) that uniquely identifies the OSPF area in the
OSPF domain.
Allows the specification of the interval between the transmissions of OSPF Hello packets,
in seconds. The Hello Interval, Dead Interval, Authorization Type, and Authorization Key
should be the same for all routers on the same network.
Allows the specification of the length of time between the receipts of Hello packets from a
neighbor router before the selected area declares that router down. The Dead Interval
must be evenly divisible by the Hello Interval.
Assign the designated entry to be a passive interface. A passive interface will not
advertise to any other routers than those within its OSPF intranet.
