– For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword FortyGigabitEthernet then the slot/port
information (for example, passive-interface fo 2/3 ).
– For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094 (for example,
passive-interface vlan 2222 ).
The keyword default sets all interfaces on this OSPF process as passive.
To remove the passive interface from select interfaces, use the no passive-interface
interface command while passive interface default is configured.
To enable both receiving and sending routing updates, use the no passive-interface
interface command.
Example of Viewing Passive Interfaces
When you configure a passive interface, the show ip ospf process-id interface command adds
the words passive interface to indicate that the hello packets are not transmitted on that interface
(shown in bold).

Enabling Fast-Convergence
The fast-convergence CLI sets the minimum origination and arrival LSA parameters to zero (0), allowing
rapid route calculation.
When you disable fast-convergence, origination and arrival LSA parameters are set to 5 seconds and 1
second, respectively.
Setting the convergence parameter (from 1 to 4) indicates the actual convergence level. Each
convergence setting adjusts the LSA parameters to zero, but the fast-convergence parameter setting
allows for even finer tuning of the convergence speed. The higher the number, the faster the
convergence.
To enable or disable fast-convergence, use the following command.
• Enable OSPF fast-convergence and specify the convergence level.
