OSPF route limit
OS10 supports up to 16,000 OSPF routes. Within this range, the only restriction is on intra-area routes that scale only up to 100 routes.
Other OSPF routes can scale up to 16 K.
Enable OSPF
OSPF is disabled by default. Congure at least one interface as either physical or LOOPBACK and assign an IP address to the interface. You
can assign any area besides area 0 a number ID. The OSPF process starts automatically when you congure OSPF globally and enabled for
one or more interfaces.
1 Enable OSPF globally and congure an OSPF instance in CONFIGURATION mode.

2 Enter the interface information to congure the interface for OSPF in INTERFACE mode.
interface ethernet node/slot/port[:subport]
3 Enable the interface in INTERFACE mode.
no shutdown
4 Disable the default switchport conguration and remove it from an interface or a LAG port in INTERFACE mode.
no switchport
5 Assign an IP address to the interface in INTERFACE mode.
ip address ip-address/mask
6 Enable the OSPFv2 on an interface in INTERFACE mode.
ip ospf process-id area area-id
• process-id—Enter the OSPF process ID for a specic OSPF process from 1 to 65535.
• area-id—Enter the OSPF area ID as an IP address (A.B.C.D) or number from 1 to 65535.
7 Apply the conguration.
