10.255.255.255, but any unique 32-

entered, the highest IP address
assigned to the switch will become
the OSPF Route ID.

Current Route ID

Displays the OSPF Route ID
currently in use by the switch. This
Route ID is displayed as a
convenience to the user when
changing the switch’s OSPF Route
ID.

AS Border Router

Autonomous System Border Router −
determines whether or not the switch
is configured as an AS Border
Router.

State

Allows OSPF to be enabled or
disabled globally on the switch
without changing the OSPF
configuration.

OSPF Area Setting

This menu allows the configuration of OSPF Area IDs and to
designate these areas as either Normal or Stub. Normal OSPF
areas allow Link-State Database (LSDB) advertisements of
routes to networks that are external to the area, Stub areas do
not allow the LSDB advertisement of external routes. Stub
areas use a default summary external route (0.0.0.0 or Area 0)
to reach external destination.
