NTERFACES

You should specify a routing interface for any local subnet that needs to

communicate with other network segments located on this router or

elsewhere in the network. First configure a VLAN for each subnet that will

be directly connected to this router, assign IP interfaces to each VLAN (i.e.,

one primary interface and one or more secondary interfaces), and then use

the Network Area configuration page to assign an interface address range

to an OSPF area.

After assigning a routing interface to an OSPF area, use the Routing

Protocol > OSPF > Interface (Configure by VLAN) or (Configure by

Address) page to configure the interface-specific parameters used by OSPF

to set the cost used to select preferred paths, select the designated router,

control the timing of link state advertisements, and specify the method

used to authenticate routing messages.
