The following table describes the related labels in this screen.
28.5 Configuring OSPF Interfaces
To configure an OSPF interface, first create an IP routing domain in the IP Setup screen (see
for more information). Once you create an IP routing domain, an OSPF
interface entry is automatically created. See
for more information on
OSPF.
Stub Network
Select this option to set the area as a stub area.
If you enter 0.0.0.0 in the Area ID field, the settings in the Stub Area fields are
ignored.
No Summary
Select this option to set the Switch to not send/receive LSAs.
Default Route
Cost
Specify a cost (between 0 and 16777214) used to add a default route into a stub area
for routes which are external to an OSPF domain. If you do not set a route cost, no
default route is added.
Add
Click Add to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses
these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top
navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done
configuring.
Cancel
Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
Clear
Click Clear to set the above fields back to the factory defaults.
