8–42
Item Description / Setting
Area Subnet Mask Subnet mask of the Area Network.
OSPF Area
The SLM-5650A NP Interface supports only one OSPF Area at a time. A group of
(adjacent) routers which cooperate by exchanging their routing data base for the
specified network range; i.e. an OSPF router will only send its database to other
routers that advertise that they are in the same area.
Valid range is from 0 to 4294967295.
Cost
Specify the explicit cost of sending a packet via this interface.
Valid range is from 1 to 65535.
Retransmit Interval
Specify the number of seconds between link state advertisement retransmissions for
adjacencies belonging to an OSPF interface.
Transmit Delay
Parameters used to define the route to the destination network.
Valid range is from 1 to 65535 seconds.
Priority
Set priority to help determine the OSPF.
Valid range is 0 (default, or not designated) to 255.
Hello Interval
Specify the length of time, in seconds, between the hello packets that are sent on an
OSPF interface.
Valid range is from 1 to 65535 seconds.
Dead Interval
Set the number of seconds that a device’s ‘Hello’ packets must not have been seen
before its neighbors declare the OSPF router down.
Valid range is from 1 to 65535 seconds.
Authentication Key
Assign a specific password to be used by neighboring OSPF routers on a network
segment that is using OSPF’s simple password authentication.
Message Digest Key Enable OSPG MD5 authentication.
