Configuration steps
Enable OSPF on the Switch by typing:
>router ospf
1.
Create all area IDs by typing:
>area create <area_id>
<area_id> is any number from 0.0.0.0 used to identify an OSPF area. Each OSPF AS must have a
backbone area, identified by 0.0.0.0. Area 0.0.0.0 already exists, you do not have to create it. An area ID
is expressed in dotted IP format. By default, all areas created are defined as normal.
2.
Identify stubby areas by typing:
>area <area_id> stub
3.
Assign interfaces to these areas using the area command:
>network <ip_address> area <area_id>
<ip_address> is the IP address of the router interface
4.
Assign a cost to each interface by entering:
>ip ospf cost <ip_address> <cost>
<cost> is the metric applied to this interface
5.
Assign a priority to each interface by entering:
>ip ospf priority <ip_address> <priority>
6.
Password protect each interface by creating an alphanumeric authentication key of up to eight characters.
Once the interface is protected, you can elect to password protect individual areas. If you want two OSPF
routers to exchange LSAs, their authentication keys must be the same.
To password protect a single interface, type:
