Configuring The Ospf Network Type For An Interface As P2Mp; Configuring The Ospf Network Type For An Interface As P2P - HP 3600 v2 series Configuration Manual

NOTE:
The router priority configured with the ospf dr-priority command and the one configured with the peer
command have the following differences.
The former is for actual DR election.
•
• The latter is to indicate 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 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 adjacency establishment.

quit
ospf [ process-id | router-id

Remarks
—
—
Required
By default, the network type of an
interface depends on the link layer
protocol.
After you configure the OSPF
network type for an interface as
P2MP unicast, all packets are unicast
over the interface. The interface
cannot broadcast hello packets to
discover neighbors. In that case, you
need to manually specify the
neighbors.

P2MP unicast
