When you configure OSPF settings, you have to define the AS in which OSPF is enabled
and specify which of the FortiGate interfaces participate in the AS. As part of the AS
definition, you specify the AS areas and specify which networks to include those areas.
You may optionally adjust the settings associated with OSPF operation on the FortiGate
interfaces.
To view and edit OSPF settings, go to Router > Dynamic > OSPF.

Router ID
Enter a unique router ID to identify the FortiGate unit to other OSPF routers.
By convention, the router ID is the numerically highest IP address assigned to
any of the FortiGate interfaces in the OSPF AS.
If you change the router ID while OSPF is configured on an interface, all
connections to OSPF neighbors will be broken temporarily. The connections
will re-establish themselves.
If Router ID is not explicitly set, the highest IP address of the VDOM or unit
will be used.
