ip ospf vlan (for a VLAN)

Configure OSPF on a VLAN.

Syntax

Command Parameters

<1-4059>

Specifies the VLAN ID in the range of 1 to 4059. By default, VLAN IDs 1 to 4059 are configurable and the system reserves VLAN IDs 4060 to 4094 for internal use. On switches that support the vrf-scaling and spbm-config-mode boot configuration flags, if you enable these flags, the system also reserves VLAN IDs 3500 to 3998. VLAN ID 1 is the default VLAN and you cannot create or delete VLAN ID 1.

advertise-when-down enable
Enables or disables AdvertiseWhenDown. If enabled, the network on this interface is advertised as up, even if the port is down. When you configure a VLAN with no link and enable advertise-when-down, the route is not advertised until the VLAN is active. Then the route is advertised even when the link is down. To disable advertising based on link status, this parameter must be disabled. The default is disabled.
area {A.B.C.D}
Configures OSPF parameters on a VLAN to control how OSPF behaves.
authentication-key WORD<0-8>
Configures the eight-character simple password authentication key for the VLAN.
authentication-type
Configures the OSPF authentication type for the VLAN. If simple, all OSPF updates the interface receives must contain the authentication key specified by the area authentication-key command. If MD5, they must contain the MD5 key. The default is none.
cost <0-65535>
Configures the OSPF cost associated with this interface and advertised in router link advertisements. The default is 0.
dead-interval <0-2147483647>
Configures the router OSPF dead interval-the number of seconds the OSPF neighbors of a switch must wait before assuming that the OSPF router is down. The value must be at least four times the Hello interval. The default is 40.
enable
Enables OSPF on the VLAN. The default is disabled.
hello-interval <1-65535>
Configures the OSPF Hello interval, which is the number of seconds between Hello packets sent on this interface. The default is 10.
mtu-ignore enable
Enables maximum transmission unit (MTU) ignore. To allow the switch to accept OSPF database description (DBD) packets with a different MTU size, enable mtu-ignore. Incoming OSPF DBD packets are dropped if their MTU is greater than 1500 bytes.
network { broadcast | nbma | passive }
Specifies the type of OSPF interface.
poll-interval <0-2147483647>
Configures the OSPF poll interval in seconds. The default is 120.
primary-md5-key <1-255>
Changes the primary key used to encrypt outgoing packets. <1-255> is the ID for the new message digest key.
priority <0-255>
Configures the OSPF priority for the VLAN during the election process for the designated router. The VLAN with the highest priority number is the best candidate for the designated router. If you configure the priority to 0, the VLAN cannot become either the designated router or a backup designated router. The default is 1.
retransmit-interval <0-3600>
Configures the retransmit interval for the virtual interface, the number of seconds between link-state advertisement retransmissions.
transit-delay <0-3600>
Configures the transit delay for the virtual interface, which is the estimated number of seconds required to transmit a link-state update over the interface.

Default

None
