Parameter Descriptions
This table provides a description of the OSPF Virtual Interfaces window.
Table 12-18 OSPF Virtual Interfaces Window Parameters]
Parameter Description
Transit Area ID The Transit Area that the Virtual Link traverses. By definition,
this is not 0.0.0.0.
Neighbor Router
ID
The Router ID of the Virtual Neighbor.
Transit Delay The estimated number of seconds it takes to transmit a link-
state update packet over this interface.
Retransmission 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 value should
be well over the expected round- trip time.
Hello Interval The length of time, in seconds, between the Hello packets
that the router sends on the interface. This value must be the
same for the virtual neighbor."
Router Dead The number of seconds that a router's Hello packets have not
been seen before it's neighbors declare the router down. This
should be some multiple of the Hello interval. This value must
be the same for the virtual neighbor.
State OSPF virtual interface states. States are: Down, and
Point-to-Point.
Events The number of state changes or error events on this Virtual
Link.
Authentication If Authentication Type is simplePassword, the device will left
adjust and zero fill to eight octets. Note that unauthenticated
interfaces need no authentication key, and simple password
authentication cannot use a key of more than eight octets.
Status This variable displays the status of the entry. Setting it to
'invalid' has the effect of rendering it inoperative. The internal
effect (row removal) is implementation- dependent.
