To assign interface 1/8 of Router A to area 10.5.0.0 and then save the changes, enter the following
commands.

RouterA(config)# interface e 1/8

RouterA(config-if-e10000-1/8)# ip ospf area 10.5.0.0

RouterA(config-if-e10000-1/8)# write memory

Setting all OSPFv2 interfaces to the passive state

You can set all the Open Shortest Path First Version 2 (OSPFv2) interfaces to the default passive
state using the default-passive-interface command. When you configure the interfaces as passive,
the interfaces drop all the OSPFv2 control packets.

To set all the OSPFv2 interfaces to passive, enter the following command.

device# configure terminal

device(config)# router ospf vrf A

device(config-ospf-router-vrf-A)# default-passive-interface

Syntax: [no] default-passive-interface

Modify interface defaults

OSPF has interface parameters that you can configure. For simplicity, each of these parameters has a
default value. No change to these default values is required except as needed for specific network
configurations.

Port default values can be modified using the following CLI commands at the interface configuration
level of the CLI:

ip ospf area
ip ospf auth-change-wait-time
ip ospf authentication-key
ip ospf cost
ip ospf database-filter all out
ip ospf dead-interval
ip ospf hello-interval
ip ospf md5-authentication key-activation-wait-time
ip ospf mtu-ignore
ip ospf passive
ip ospf active
ip ospf priority
ip ospf retransmit-interval
ip ospf transmit-delay

OSPF interface parameters

The following parameters apply to OSPF interfaces:

• area—Assigns an interface to a specific area. You can assign either an IP address or number to

represent an OSPF Area ID. If you assign a number, it can be any value from 0 - 2,147,483,647.

• auth-change-wait-time—OSPF gracefully implements authentication changes to allow all routers to

implement the change and thus prevent disruption to neighbor adjacencies. During the
authentication-change interval, both the old and new authentication information is supported. The
