Configuring OSPF
Defaults
•
If metric value is not specified, 0 will be applied.

If tag is not specified, none will be applied.
Mode
Router configuration: Matrix>Router(config‐router)#
Usage
The "no" form of this command clears redistribution parameters.
Example
This example shows how to distribute external type 2 RIP routing information from non‐
subnetted routes in OSPF updates:
Matrix>Router(config)#router ospf
Matrix>Router(config-router)#redistribute rip
database-overflow
Use this command to limit the size of OSPF link state database overflow, a condition where the
router is unable to maintain the database in its entirety.
Syntax
database-overflow external {[exit-overflow-interval interval] [limit limit]
[warning-level level]}
no database-overflow external {[exit-overflow-interval interval] [limit limit]
[warning-level level]}
Parameters
external
exit‐overflow‐
interval interval
limit limit
warning‐level level
Defaults
None.
21-38 Routing Protocol Configuration
Specifies the LSA type as external (Type 5.)
Specifies an interval (in seconds) the OSPF link state database will be
checked to determine if the overflow limit has been reached. Valid
values are 0 ‐ 86400. Default is 0.
Specifies the peak number of LSAs accepted before overflow occurs.
Valid values are 0 ‐ 4000. Default is 0.
Note: Limit value must be greater than the warning-level value and set prior to it
since all defaults are 0.
Specifies the number of LSAs at which a warning of pending overflow
will be generated. Valid values are 0 ‐ 4000. Default is 0.
