xStack® DGS-3600 Series Layer 3 Managed Gigabit Ethernet Switch OSPF Virtual Link Settings This window shows the current OSPF Virtual Interface Settings. There are no virtual interface settings configured by default, so the first time this table is viewed there will be no interfaces listed. To add a new OSPF virtual interface configuration set to the table, click the Add button. A new window appears (see below). To change an existing configuration, click on the hyperlinked Transit Area ID for the set you want to change. The window to modify an existing set is the same as the window used to add a new one. To view this window, click L3 Features > OSPF > OSPF > OSPF Virtual Link Settings, as shown below: Figure 4- 57. OSPF Virtual Link Settings window To delete an existing configuration, click the corresponding button in the Delete column. The status of the virtual interface appears in the Status column. Figure 4- 58. OSPF Virtual Link Settings - Add window Configure the following parameters if you are adding or changing an OSPF Virtual Interface: Parameter Description Transit Area ID Allows the entry of an OSPF 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 Router ID The OSPF 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 OSPF Hello packets, in seconds. Enter a value between 1 and 65535 seconds. The Hello Interval, Dead Interval, Authorization Type, and Authorization Key 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. Auth Type If using authorization for OSPF routers, select the type being used. MD5 key authorization must be set up in the MD5 Key Settings window. 221
