Specifying
Passive Interfaces
Use the Routing Protocol > OSPF > Passive Interface (Add) page to stop OSPF from
sending routing updates on the specified interface.
Command Usage
You can configure an OSPF interface as passive to prevent OSPF routing traffic from
exiting or entering that interface. No OSPF adjacency can be formed if one of the
interfaces involved is set to passive mode. The specified interface will appear as a
stub in the OSPF domain. Also, if you configure an OSPF interface as passive where
an adjacency already exists, the adjacency will drop almost immediately.
