DESCRIPTION
When you select Simple in the Authentication field, enter a password
eight-character long. Characters after the eighth character will be ignored.
When you select MD5 in the Authentication field, enter a password 16-
character long.
The interface cost is used for calculating the routing table. Enter a number
between 0 and 65535. The default interface cost is 15.
The priority you assign to the interface is used in router elections to decide
which router is going to be the Designated Router (DR) or the Backup
Designated Router (BDR). You can assign a number between 0 and 255. A
priority of 0 means that the router will not participate in router elections.
Click Add to save your changes to the Switch's run-time memory. The
Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the
Save link on the top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-
volatile memory when you are done configuring.
