Description
Allows the entry of an OSPF Area ID − previously defined on the Switch − that allows a
remote area to communicate with the backbone (area 0). A Transit Area cannot be a Stub
Area or a Backbone Area.
The OSPF router ID for the remote router. This is a 32-bit number in the form of an IP
address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) that uniquely identifies the remote area's Area Border Router.
Specify the interval between the transmission of OSPF Hello packets, in seconds. Enter a
value between 1 and 65535 seconds. The Hello Interval, Dead Interval, Authorization
Type, and Authorization Key should have identical settings for all routers on the same
network.
Specify the length of time between (receiving) Hello packets from a neighbor router before
the selected area declares that router down. Again, all routers on the network should use the
same setting.
If using authorization for OSPF routers, select the type being used. MD5 key authorization
must be set up in the MD5 Key Settings menu.
