Syntax

Command Parameters

area {A.B.C.D}
Creates an IPv6 OSPF area.
cost <0-65535>
Configures the OSPF metric for the interface. The switch advertises the metric in router link advertisements. The default is 1.
dead-interval <1-65535>
Specifies the dead interval, as the number of seconds to wait before determining the OSPF router is down. The default is 40.
hello-interval <1-65535>
Specifies the hello interval, in seconds, for hello packets sent between switches for a virtual interface in an OSPF area. The default is 10.
network <eth|nbma|p2mp|p2p|passive>
Configures the type of interface as one of the following: eth: broadcast, nbma: NBMA, p2mp: point-to-multipoint, p2p:pointto-point, or passive: passive interface.
priority <0-255>
Configures the OSPF priority for the interface during the election process for the designated router. The interface with the highest priority number is the designated router. The interface with the second-highest priority becomes the backup designated router.
If the priority is 0, the interface cannot become either the designated router or a backup. The priority is used only during election of the designated router and backup designated router. The default is 1.
