Adding the Interface MTU into DD Packets
Generally, when an interface sends a DD packet, it adds 0 into the Interface MTU field of the DD packet
rather than the interface MTU.
Follow these steps to add the interface MTU into DD packets:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter interface view
Enable OSPF to add the
interface MTU into DD packets
Configuring the Maximum Number of External LSAs in LSDB
Follow these steps to configure the maximum number of external LSAs in the Link State Database:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter OSPF view
Specify the maximum number
of external LSAs in the LSDB
Making External Route Selection Rules Defined in RFC1583 Compatible
The selection of an external route from multiple LSAs defined in RFC2328 is different from the one
defined in RFC1583. If RFC1583 is made compatible with RFC 2328, the routes in the backbone area
are preferred; if not, the routes in the non-backbone area are preferred to reduce the burden of the
backbone area.
Follow these steps to make them compatible:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter OSPF view
Make RFC1583
compatible
Use the command...
system-view
interface interface-type
interface-number
ospf mtu-enable
Use the command...
system-view
ospf [ process-id | router-id router-id |
vpn-instance instance-name ] *
lsdb-overflow-limit number
Use the command...
system-view
ospf [ process-id | router-id router-id
| vpn-instance instance-name ] *
rfc1583 compatible
