205
Transmit Delay:
The Transit Delay for the specified interface. This specifies the
estimated number of seconds it takes to transmit a link state
update packet over the s
elected interface. The valid value
ranges from 1 to 65535 seconds and the default is 1 second.
Authentication
Type:
You may select an authentication type other than none by
clicking on the 'Authentication Type' button. The choices are:
 default: Uses the a
uthentication type of the backbone
area.
 null: No authentication.
 simple: Uses simple password.
 md5: Uses md5 message-digest algorithm.
Authentication Key: Displays the active authentication key of the interface.
Authentication Key
ID:
Displays the active authentication key ID of the interface.
State:
Displays the current state of the selected router interface. One
of:

Down: This is the initial interface state. In this state, the
lower-
level protocols have indicated that the interface is
unusable. In thi
s state, interface parameters will be set to
their initial values. All interface timers will be disabled, and
there will be no adjacencies associated with the interface.

P2P: In this state, the interface is operational, and
connects either to a physical point-to-
point network or to a
virtual link. Upon entering this state, the router attempts to
form an adjacency with the neighboring router. Hello
Packets are sent to the neighbor every HelloInterval
seconds.
