xStack® DGS-3600 Series Layer 3 Managed Gigabit Ethernet Switch Figure 4- 71. OSPFv3 Virtual Interface Settings - Edit window Configure the following parameters if you are adding or changing an OSPFv3 Virtual Interface: Parameter Description Area ID Allows the entry of an OSPFv3 Area ID − previously defined on the Switch − that allows a remote area to communicate with the backbone (area 0). A Transit Area cannot be a Stub Area or a Backbone Area. Neighbor ID The OSPFv3 router ID for the remote router. This is a 32-bit number in the form of an IP address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) that uniquely identifies the remote area's Area Border Router. Hello Interval (165535) Specify the interval between the transmission of OSPFv3 Hello packets, in seconds. Enter a value between 1 and 65535 seconds. The Hello Interval, Dead Interval, and Instance should have identical settings for all routers on the same network. Dead Interval (165535) Specify the length of time between (receiving) Hello packets from a neighbor router before the selected area declares that router down. Again, all routers on the network should use the same setting. Instance ID (0-255) The instance ID of the interface. Its default value is 0. Transmit Delay The number of seconds required to transmit a link state update over this virtual link. Transit delay takes into account transmission and propagation delays. This field is fixed at 1 second. Retransmit Time The number of seconds between link state advertisement retransmissions for adjacencies belonging to this virtual link. This field is fixed at 5 seconds. Virtual Link Status This displays the state of the current virtual link. Click Apply to implement changes made. NOTE: For OSPFv3 to function properly, some settings should be identical on all participating OSPFv3 devices. These settings include Hello Interval and Dead Interval. 230
