Configure the global OSPF settings
You can configure the OSPF settings that apply globally to the OSPF processes on the
switch.
To configure the global OSPF settings:
1. Launch a web browser.
2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Log in to the main UI with a web
browser on page 27 and the subsections.
The login page displays.
3. Click the Main UI Login button.
The main UI login page displays in a new tab.
4. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password, and click the Login
button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Routing > OSPF > Advanced > OSPF Configuration.
The OSPF Configuration page displays. The page shows different sections.
6. Go to the OSPF Configuration section.
7. In the Router ID field, enter the 32-bit number in dotted-decimal format that uniquely
identifies the router within the autonomous system (AS).
To change the router ID, you must first disable OSPF. After you set a new router ID,
you must reenable OSPF for the change to take effect. The default value is 0.0.0.0,
although this is not a valid router ID.
8. Select an Admin Mode radio button:
•
Enable: OSPF is enabled for the switch. This is the default setting.
•
Disable: OSPF is disabled for the switch.
Before OSPF can become operational, you must enable the administrative mode
for IPv4 routing on the switch (see Manage the global IPv4 routing settings on page
398).
9. From the RFC 1583 Compatibility menu, select how the switch automatically sets
preference rules for link-state advertisements (LSAs) if multiple AS-external-LSAs
advertise the same destination:
