Configuring The P2P Network Type For An Interface; Configuring Ospf Route Control; Configuration Prerequisites; Configuring Ospf Route Summarization - HP MSR Series Configuration Manual

Step
6. Specify a neighbor and its
router priority.

Configuring the P2P network type for an interface

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure the OSPF network
type for the interface as P2P.

Configuring OSPF route control

This section describes how to control the advertisement and reception of OSPF routing information, as
well as route redistribution from other protocols.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure OSPF route control, complete the following tasks:
• Configure IP addresses for interfaces.
Enable OSPF.
•
Configure filters if routing information filtering is needed.
•

Configuring OSPF route summarization

You can configure route summarization on an ABR or ASBR to summarize routes with the same prefix into
a single route and distribute it to other areas.
Route summarization reduces the routing information exchanged between areas and the sizes of routing
tables, improving router performance.
Configuring route summarization on an ABR
If contiguous network segments are available in the area, you can summarize them into a single network
segment. An ABR generates Type-3 LSAs on a per network segment basis for an attached non-backbone
area. In this way, the ABR in the area distributes only the summary LSA to reduce the scale of LSDBs on
routers in other areas and the influence of topology changes.
For example, in an area are three internal routes 19.1.1.0/24, 19.1.2.0/24, and 19.1.3.0/24. By
configuring route summarization on the ABR, the three routes are summarized into the route 19.1.0.0/16
that is advertised to other areas.
To configure route summarization on an ABR:
Command
peer ip-address [ cost value |
dr-priority dr-priority ]
Command
system-view
interface interface-type
interface-number
ospf network-type p2p
68
Remarks
Optional.
By default, no neighbor is specified.
This step must be performed if the
network type is P2MP unicast, and is
optional if the network type is P2MP.

By default, the network type of an
interface depends on the link layer
protocol.
