Important Considerations

The OSPF router ID identifies the router to other routers within an
autonomous system. Three types of router identifiers are available; all
three take the form of an IP address:

Default — A unique ID that the system generates and uses as the
default router ID

Interface — The index of an IP interface on the router

Address — An ID that you define in the form of an IP address

OSPF routing must be inactive (disabled) before you can add or modify
an OSPF router ID. To set the OSPF mode to

disabled

, see “ip ospf

interface mode” earlier in this chapter. After you modify the router ID,
you can set the OSPF mode to

enabled

on the interface

The router ID must be unique from all other router IDs and ip
interfaces in the autonomous system for OSPF to operate correctly.
Choose the

default

setting to ensure unique router IDs.

The resulting prompt depends on the router ID type that you choose.
