2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure the OSPF
network type for the
interface as P2MP.

Remarks
The default setting is 1.
The router priority configured with this
command is for DR election.
N/A
N/A
By default, no neighbor is specified.
The priority configured with this
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
determines the neighbor has no
election right, and does not send hello
packets to this neighbor. However, if
the local router is the DR or BDR, it
still sends hello packets to the
neighbor for neighbor relationship
establishment.
Remarks
N/A
N/A
By default, the network type of an
interface is broadcast.
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, so
you must manually specify the
neighbors.
N/A
N/A
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.
