45.3.3.2 Configuring Interface Parameters of OSPF
You are allowed to modify OSPF parameters of the interface according to actual requirements. When you
modify a parameter, make sure that the parameter on all switches of the interconnected network is same.
Run the following commands in interface configuration mode to configure the interface parameters:
Command Purpose
ip ospf costcost
Configures the value of the transmission
packet on the OSPF interface.
ip ospf retransmit-interval seconds
Configures the seconds of LSA resending
between neighbors on the same OSPF
interface.
ip ospf transmit-delayseconds
Configures the time to send LSA on an
OSPF interface (unit: second).
ip ospf prioritynumber
Configures the priority number for the
routing switch to become the OSPF DR
routing switch.
ip ospf hello-intervalseconds
Configures the interval to send the hello
packet on the OSPF interface.
ip ospf dead-intervalseconds
Configures the dead interval. In the
prescribed interval, if the hello packet from
neighbors is not received, the neighboring
switch is considered to be in shutdown
state.
ip ospf authentication-keykey
Represents the authentication password
of the neighboring route in a network
segment. The OSPF authentication
password is adopted.
ip ospf message-digest-keykeyid
md5 key
Requires OSPF to use the MD5
authentication.
ip ospf passive Configures the state of the hello message
on a port.
45.3.3.3 Configuring OSPF in Different Physical Networks
OSPF divides the physical media of the network into the following classes:
 Broadcast network (Ethernet, Token Ring, FDDI)
 Non-broadcast and multi-access network (SMDS, Frame Relay, X.25)
 Point-to-point network (HDLC, PPP)
The X.25 and frame-relay network provides optional broadcast capability. You can configure the OSPF to run
