C6576M Ethernet Interface Dialog Box Chapter 5 Physical Object Dialog Boxes OSPF Area EIGRP Area The OSPF area of the C6576M Ethernet Interface dialog box provides the following information: • Network Type-The OSPF interface type. For Ethernet interfaces, the type is always broadcast. This is a read-only attribute. • Area ID-The predefined ID uniquely identifying the area to which the interface connects. It can be specified as either a decimal value or as an IP address. This is a read-only attribute. • Authentication Key-The OSPF authentication key. This is a read-only attribute. • Hello Interval (sec)-Frequency at which the device will send hello packets on the specified interface and EIGRP autonomous system number. • Retrans. Interval (sec)-The number of seconds between link-state advertisement retransmissions for adjacencies belonging to this interface. This value is also used when retransmitting database description and link-state request packets. This is a read-only attribute. • Trans. Priority-The priority of this interface. Used in multiaccess networks, this field is used in the designated router election algorithm. The value 0 signifies that the router is not eligible to become the designated router on this particular network. If more than one router has the same value for this field, the routers use their router ID as a tie breaker. This is a read-only attribute. • Trans. Dead (sec)-The number of seconds that a router's hello packets have not been seen before its neighbors declare the router down. This value should be a multiple of the hello interval. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a common network. This is a read-only attribute. • Trans. Delay (sec)-The estimated number of seconds it takes to transmit a link state update packet over this interface. This is a read-only attribute. The EIGRP Area of the C6576M Ethernet Interface dialog box provides the following information: • EIGRP Interface Table-A list of the EIGRP processes. The following attributes can be configured for an EIGRP process: - Bandwidth Utilization (%) -The percentage of the interface bandwidth that the EIGRP protocol can use. - Hold Time (sec)-Hold time during which the device will wait for a hello packet to be received on the specified interface and EIGRP autonomous system number. The hold time should be at least three times the hello interval. - Hello Interval (sec)-Frequency at which the device will send hello packets on the specified interface and EIGRP autonomous system number. 5-36 Cisco 6500/7600 Series Manager User Guide
