M4300 Intelligent Edge Series Fully Managed Stackable Switches Make an interface passive to prevent OSPF from forming an adjacency on an interface. OSPF advertises networks attached to passive interfaces as stub networks. Interfaces are not passive by default, meaning that the passive mode default is Disable. 15. In the OSPF Network Type list, select Broadcast or Point-to-Point. OSPF selects a designated router and originates network LSAs only for broadcast networks. No more than two OSPF routers can be present on a point-to-point link. The default network type for Ethernet interfaces is broadcast. 16. Select an Authentication Type other than None by selecting from the list. The choices are as follows: • None. This is the initial interface state. If you select this option from the list, no authentication protocols are run. The default is None. • Simple. You are prompted to enter an authentication key. This key is included, in the clear, in the OSPF header of all packets sent on the network. All routers on the network must be configured with the same key. • Encrypt. You are prompted to enter an authentication key and an authentication ID. Encryption uses the MD5 Message-Digest algorithm. All routers on the network must be configured with the same key and ID. 17. Enter the Authentication Key ID to be used for authentication. You are prompted to enter an ID only if you select Encrypt as the authentication type. The ID is a number between 0 and 255, inclusive. 18. In the Metric Cost field, enter the link cost. OSPF uses this value in computing shortest paths. The range is from 1 to 65,535. The default is 1. 19. Click the Apply button. Your settings are saved. The following table describes the nonconfigurable information that is displayed. Table 133. OSPF Interface Configuration Field IP Address Subnet Mask LSA Ack Interval (secs) Description The IP address of the interface. The network mask, indicating the portion of the IP address that identifies the attached network. The number of seconds to wait before sending a delayed acknowledgement.
