OUTING
The interface cost reflects the line speed of the port. Although the system
calculates a default cost value based on the module media type, you can
manually change the cost to a different value. In most cases, you can
accept the system default value.
To set the interface cost:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
ip ospf interface cost
2 Enter an IP interface.
3 Enter the cost value for the interface.
The default is calculated by the system.
Allowable values:
This command sets the OSPF interface transmit delay, in seconds. The
system adds the value of the transmit delay to all link state
advertisements (LSAs) that it sends out to the network. Set the transmit
delay according to the link speed: use a longer transmit delay time for
slower link speeds.
The default delay is 1 second.
To set the interface delay:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
ip ospf interface delay
2 Enter an IP interface.
3 Enter the interface transmit delay value.
