  2. Define or override the following parameters in the OSPF Settings field:
    Priority Select this option to enable or disable OSPF priority settings. Use the spinner to configure a value from 0 - 255. This option sets the priority of this interface becoming the Designated Router (DR) for the network. DRs provide routing updates to the network by maintaining a complete topology table of the network and sends the updates to the other routers in the network using multicast. Setting a high value increases the chance of this interface becoming a DR. Setting this value to zero prevents this interface from being elected a DR.
    Cost Select this option to enable or disable OSPF cost settings. Use the spinner to configure a cost value from 1 - 65535. Use this option to set the OSPF cost of this interface. OSPF cost is the overhead required to send a packet over this interface.
    Bandwidth Set the OSPF bandwidth from 1 - 10,000,000 KBps.
  3. From the Chosen Authentication Type drop-down list, select the authentication type used to validate credentials within the OSPF dynamic route.
    The available options are None, null, simple-password, and message-digest. The default value is None.
  4. Select + Add Row at the bottom of the MD5 Authentication table to add the Key ID and Password used for an MD5 validation of authenticator credentials.
    Key ID Set the unique MD5 Authentication key ID. The available key ID range is 1 - 255.
    Password Set the OSPF password. This value is displayed as “asterisk” (*). Select Show to expose the characters in the password.
  5. Click OK to save the changes.
    Click Reset to revert to the last saved configuration.
