Configuring The Nbma Network Type For An Interface; Configuring The P2Mp Network Type For An Interface - HP MSR2000 series Configuration Manual

Step
3. Configure the OSPF network
type for the interface as
broadcast.
4. Configure a router priority for
the interface.

Configuring the NBMA network type for an interface

After configuring the network type of an interface as NBMA, you must make some special configurations.
Because NBMA interfaces cannot find neighbors via broadcasting hello packets, you must specify
neighbors and their router priorities. (A router priority of 0 means the router does not have the DR election
right. A router priority greater than 0 means the router has the DR election right.)
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

Step
1. Enter system view.
