Configuring The P2Mp Network Type For An Interface - HP MSR Series Configuration Manual

The router priority configured with the ospf dr-priority command is for actual DR election. The priority
configured with the peer command indicates whether a neighbor has the election right or not. If you
configure the router priority for a neighbor as 0, the local router will assume the neighbor has no election
right, and thus send no hello packets to this neighbor. However, if the local router is the DR or BDR, it still
sends hello packets to the neighbor with priority 0 for neighborship establishment.
To configure the OSPF network type for an Interface as NBMA:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure the OSPF network
type for the interface as
NBMA.
4. Configure a router priority
for the interface.
5. Exit to system view.
6. Enter OSPF view.
7. Specify a neighbor and its
router priority.

Configuring the P2MP network type for an interface

By default, the network type of an
interface depends on the link layer
protocol.
Optional.
The default router priority is 1.

By default, no neighbor is specified.

N/A
By default, the network type of an
interface depends on the link layer
protocol.
After you configure the OSPF
network type for an interface as
P2MP unicast, all packets are unicast
over the interface. The interface
cannot broadcast hello packets to
discover neighbors, so you must
manually specify the neighbors.
