Default Level
2: System level
Parameters
router-id: Router ID of the neighbor on the virtual link.
hello seconds: Hello interval in seconds, in the range 1 to 8192. The default is 10. It must be identical to
the hello interval on its virtual link neighbor.
retransmit seconds: Retransmission interval in seconds, in the range 1 to 3600, which defaults to 5.
trans-delay seconds: Transmission delay interval in seconds, in the range 1 to 3600, which defaults to
1.
dead seconds: Dead interval in seconds, in the range 1 to 32768, which defaults to 40 and is identical to
the value on its virtual link neighbor. The dead interval is at least four times the hello interval.
md5: MD5 authentication.
hmac-md5: HMAC-MD5 authentication.
simple: Simple authentication.
key-id: Key ID for MD5 or HMAC-MD5 authentication, in the range 1 to 255.
plain | cipher: Plain or cipher type. If plain is specified, only plain password is supported and displayed
upon displaying the configuration file. If cipher is specified, both plain and cipher are supported, but only
cipher password is displayed when displaying the configuration file. By default, MD5 and HMAC-MD5
support cipher password, and simple authentication supports plain password.
password: Plain or cipher password. Simple authentication: For plain type, a plain password is a string
of up to 8 characters. For cipher type, a plain password is a string of up to 8 characters, and a cipher
password is a string of up to 24 characters. MD5/HMAC-MD5 authentication: For plain type, a plain
password is a string of up to16 characters. For cipher type, a plain password is a string of up to 16
characters, and a cipher password is a string of up to 24 characters.
Description
Use the vlink-peer command to configure a virtual link.
Use the undo vlink-peer command to remove a virtual link.
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.
