OSPF configuration with NETCONF overview
Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a link-state routing protocol that uses link-state advertisements
(LSAs) to update neighboring routers about its interfaces. Each router maintains an identical
area-topology database to determine the shortest path to any neighboring router.
This chapter provides procedures and examples for configuring OSPF using the NETCONF interface.
Refer to the Network OS Administrator’s Guide for the following related information:
•
A conceptual overview of OSPF
•
An overview of Designated routers
•
Conceptual details about key configurable entities, such as stubs, stubby areas, not so stubby
areas, totally stubby areas, and virtual links
•
Procedures for configuring the Ethernet management interface
You need an Ethernet management interface before you can configure a Secure Shell (SSH)
connection. As a result, you cannot begin a NETCONF session until this interface is configured.
•
Procedures and examples for configuring OSPF using the Network OS command line interface
Using the NETCONF interface, you can perform the following OSPF configuration operations:
•
Use the
global OSPF parameters, activate and deactivate OSPF on a port, and to set interface
parameters on a specific port.
•
Use the
OSPF parameters are defined in the brocade-ospf YANG module. For a structural map of the YANG
module, refer to the Network OS YANG Reference Manual. For definitions and explanations of all
OSPF parameters, refer to the brocade-ospf.yang file.
