As defined in RFC2328, all non-backbone areas must maintain connectivity to the
backbone. You can use the vlink-peer command to configure a virtual link to
connect an area to the backbone.
Note that:
The smaller the hello interval is, the faster the network converges and the more
■
network resources are consumed.
A so small retransmission interval will lead to unnecessary retransmissions. A
■
big value is appropriate for a low speed link.
You need to specify an appropriate transmission delay with the trans-delay
■
keyword.
The authentication mode at the non-backbone virtual link end follows the one at
the backbone virtual link end. The two authentication modes (MD5 or Simple) are
independent, and you can specify neither of them.
