Configuring OSPF Route Control

This section covers how to control OSPF routing information advertisement and reception, and route
redistribution from other protocols.

Prerequisites

Before configuring this task, you have configured:
IP addresses for interfaces
OSPF basic functions
Corresponding filters if routing information filtering is needed.
Use the command...
ospf network-type p2mp
[ unicast ]
quit
ospf [ process-id | router-id
router-id | vpn-instance
instance-name ] *
peer ip-address [ cost value |
dr-priority dr-priority ]
Use the command...
system-view
interface interface-type
interface-number
ospf network-type p2p
1-29
Remarks
Required
By default, the network type of an
interface depends on the link
layer protocol.
After you configure the OSPF
network type for an interface as
P2MP unicast, all packets are
unicast over the interface. Thus
the interface cannot broadcast
hello packets to discover
neighbors. In that case, you need
to manually specify the IP
address of the neighboring
interface.
