Step 4 area area-id virtual-link router-id
[hello-interval seconds]
[retransmit-interval seconds] [trans]
[[authentication-key key] |

Step 5

Step 6

Step 7 ip auto-cost reference-bandwidth ref-bw
Step 8 distance ospf {[inter-area dist1] [inter-area

Administrative distance is a rating of the trustworthiness of a routing information source, an integer
between 0 and 255, with a higher value meaning a lower trust rating. An administrative distance of
255 means the routing information source cannot be trusted at all and should be ignored. OSPF uses
three different administrative distances: routes within an area (interarea), routes to another area
(interarea), and routes from another routing domain learned through redistribution (external). You
can change any of the distance values.
Passive interfaces: Because interfaces between two devices on an Ethernet represent only one
network segment, to prevent OSPF from sending hello packets for the sending interface, you must
configure the sending device to be a passive interface. Both devices can identify each other through
the hello packet for the receiving interface.
Route calculation timers: You can configure the delay time between when OSPF receives a topology
change and when it starts the shortest path first (SPF) calculation and the hold time between two
SPF calculations.
Log neighbor changes: You can configure the router to send a syslog message when an OSPF
neighbor state changes, providing a high-level view of changes in the router.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enable OSPF routing, and enter router configuration mode.
(Optional) Specify an address and IP subnet mask for redistributed
routes so that only one summary route is advertised.
(Optional) Establish a virtual link and set its parameters. See the
"Configuring OSPF Interfaces" section on page 1-32
definitions and Table 1-5 on page 1-28
(Optional) Force the ASBR to generate a default route into the OSPF
routing domain. Parameters are all optional.
(Optional) Configure DNS name lookup. The default is disabled.
(Optional) Specify an address range for which a single route will be
advertised. Use this command only with area border routers.
(Optional) Change the OSPF distance values. The default distance
for each type of route is 110. The range is 1 to 255.
(Optional) Suppress the sending of hello packets through the
specified interface.
(Optional) Configure route calculation timers.
spf-delay—Delay between receiving a change to SPF

calculation. The range is from 1 to 600000. miliseconds.
spf-holdtime—Delay between first and second SPF calculation.
•
The range is form 1 to 600000 in milliseconds.
spf-wait—Maximum wait time in milliseconds for SPF
•
calculations. The range is from 1 to 600000 in milliseconds.
(Optional) Send syslog message when a neighbor state changes.
