OSPF Commands on Cisco IOS XR Software
This chapter describes the commands used to configure and monitor the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing protocol.
For detailed information about OSPF concepts, configuration tasks, and examples, see the Implementing OSPF on Cisco IOS XR Software module in Cisco IOS XR Routing Configuration Guide.
address-family (OSPF)
To enter address family configuration mode for Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), use the address-family command in the appropriate mode. To disable address family configuration mode, use the no form of this command.
address-family ipv4 [unicast]
no address-family ipv4 [unicast]
Syntax Description
ipv4 |
Specifies IP Version 4 (IPv4) address prefixes. |
unicast |
(Optional) Specifies unicast address prefixes. |
Defaults
An address family is not specified.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
OSPF version 2 automatically provides routing services for IPv4 unicast topologies, so this command is redundant.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure the OSPF router process with IPv4 unicast address prefixes:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# address-family ipv4 unicast
area (OSPF)
To configure an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) area, use the area command in the appropriate mode. To terminate an OSPF area, use the no form of this command.
area area-id
no area area-id
Syntax Description
area-id |
Identifier of an OSPF area. The area-id argument can be specified as either a decimal value or an IP address (dotted decimal) format. Range is 0 to 4294967295. |
Defaults
No OSPF area is defined.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Use the area command to explicitly configure an area. Commands configured under the area configuration mode (such as the interface [OSPF] and authentication commands), are automatically bound to that area.
To modify or remove the area, the area-id argument format must be the same as the format used when creating the area. Otherwise, even if the actual 32-bit value matches, the area is not matched. For example, if you create an area with an area-id of 10 it would not match an area-id of 0.0.0.10.
Note To remove the specified area from the router configuration, use the no area area-id command. The no area area-id command removes the area and all area options, such as authentication, default-cost, nssa, range, stub, virtual-link, and interface.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure area 0 and Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS) interface 0/2/0/0. POS interface 0/2/0/0 is bound to area 0 automatically.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS 0/2/0/0
authentication (OSPF)
To enable plain text, Message Digest 5 (MD5) authentication, or null authentication for an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) interface, use the authentication command in the appropriate mode. To remove such authentication, use the no form of this command.
authentication [message-digest [keychain keychain] | null]
no authentication
Syntax Description
message-digest |
(Optional) Specifies that MD5 is used. |
keychain keychain |
(Optional) Specifies a keychain name. |
null |
(Optional) Specifies that no authentication is used. Useful for overriding password or MD5 authentication if configured for an area. |
Defaults
If this command is not specified in interface configuration mode, then the interface adopts the authentication parameter specified by the area.
If this command is not specified in area configuration mode, then the interface adopts the authentication parameter specified for the process.
If this command is not specified at any level, then the interface does not use authentication.
If no keyword is specified, plain text authentication is used.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Use the authentication command to specify an authentication type for the interface, which overrides the authentication specified for the area to which this interface belongs. If this command is not included in the configuration file, the authentication configured in the area to which the interface belongs is assumed (as specified by the area authentication command).
The authentication type and password must be the same for all OSPF interfaces that are to communicate with each other through OSPF. If you specified plain text authentication, use the authentication-key command to specify the plain text password.
If you enable MD5 authentication with the message-digest keyword, you must configure a key with the message-digest-key interface command.
To manage the rollover of keys and enhance MD5 authentication for OSPF, you can configure a container of keys called a keychain with each key comprising the following attributes: generate/accept time, key identification, and authentication algorithm. The keychain management feature is always enabled.
Note Changes to the system clock will impact the validity of the keys in the existing configuration.
Examples
The following example shows how to set authentication for areas 0 and 1 of OSPF routing process 201. Authentication keys are also provided.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 201
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# router-id 10.1.1.1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# authentication
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS 0/1/0/1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# authentication-key mykey
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# exit
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# authentication
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS 0/1/0/0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# authentication-key mykey1
The following example shows how to configure use of an authentication keychain:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 201
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# router-id 10.1.1.1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# authentication message-digest keychain mykeychain
Related Commands
authentication-key (OSPF)
To assign a password to be used by neighboring routers that are using the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) simple password authentication, use the authentication-key command in the appropriate mode. To remove a previously assigned OSPF password, use the no form of this command.
authentication-key [clear | encrypted] password
no authentication-key
Syntax Description
clear |
(Optional) Specifies that the key be clear text. |
encrypted |
(Optional) Specifies that the key be encrypted using a two-way algorithm. |
password |
Any contiguous string up to 8 characters in length that can be entered from the keyboard. For example, mypswd2. |
Defaults
If this command is not specified in interface configuration mode, then the interface adopts the OSPF password parameter specified by the area.
If this command is not specified in area configuration mode, then the interface adopts the OSPF password parameter specified for the process.
If this command is not specified at any level, then no password is specified.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
The password created by this command is inserted directly into the OSPF header when the Cisco IOS XR software originates routing protocol packets. A separate password can be assigned to each network on an individual interface basis. All neighboring routers on the same network must have the same password to be able to exchange OSPF information.
The authentication-key command must be used with the authentication command. If the authentication command is not configured, the password provided by the authentication-key command is ignored and no authentication is adopted by the OSPF interface.
Note The authentication-key command cannot be used with the authentication command when the message-digest or null keyword is configured.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure an authentication password as the string yourpass:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 201
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# authentication-key yourpass
Related Commands
auto-cost (OSPF)
To control how the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol calculates default metrics for the interface, use the auto-cost command in the appropriate mode. To revert to the default reference bandwidth, use the no form of this command.
auto-cost {reference-bandwidth mbps | disable}
no auto-cost {reference-bandwidth | disable}
Syntax Description
reference-bandwidth mbps |
Specifies a rate in Mbps (bandwidth). Range is 1 to 4294967. |

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
By default OSPF calculates the OSPF metric for an interface according to the bandwidth of the interface.
The OSPF metric is calculated as the mbps value divided by bandwidth, with mbps equal to 108 by default.
If you have multiple links with high bandwidth (such as OC-192), you might want to use a larger number to differentiate the cost on those links. That is, the metric calculated using the default mbps value is the same for all high-bandwidth links.
Recommended usage of cost configuration for OSPF interfaces with high bandwidth is to be consistent: Either explicitly configure (by using the cost command) or choose the default (by using the auto-cost command).
The value set by the cost command overrides the cost resulting from the auto-cost command.
Examples
The following example shows how to set the reference value for the auto cost calculation to 1000 Mbps:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# auto-cost reference-bandwidth 1000

For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
The link-state metric is advertised as the link cost in the router link advertisement. Cisco IOS XR software does not support type of service (ToS), so you can assign only one cost for each interface.
In general, the path cost is calculated using the following formula:
10^8 / bandwidth (the default auto cost is set to 100 Mbps)
This calculation is the default reference bandwidth used by the auto-costing calculation which establishes the interface auto-cost The auto-cost command can set this reference bandwidth to some other value. The cost command is used to override the auto-costing calculated default value for interfaces.
Using this formula, the default path cost is 1 for any interface that has a link bandwidth of 100 Mbps or higher. If this value does not suit the network, configure the reference bandwidth for auto calculating costs based on the link bandwidth.
The value set by the cost command overrides the cost resulting from the auto-cost (OSPF) command.
Examples
The following example shows how to set the cost value to 65 for Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS) interface 0/1/0/1:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS 0/1/0/1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# cost 65

auto-cost (OSPF) |
Controls how the OSPF protocol calculates default metrics for the interface. |
cost-fallback (OSPF)
To apply higher cost than the normal interface cost when the cumulative bandwidth of a bundle interface goes below the threshold specified and to revert to the original cost if the cumulative bandwidth goes above the configured threshold, use the cost-fallback command. To remove the cost-fallback, use the no form of this command.
cost-fallback cost threshold bandwidth
no cost-fallback
Syntax Description
cost |
Unsigned integer value expressed as the link-state metric. Range is 1 to 65535, but typically, cost-fallback value is supposed to be set to a value higher than the normal cost. |
bandwidth |
Unsigned integer value expressed in Mbits per second. Range is 1 to 4294967. |
Defaults
If this command is not specified in interface configuration mode, the currently effective interface cost takes effect even when the cumulative bandwidth goes down below the maximum bandwidth. Unlike the interface cost command, this cost-fallback command is available only under interface configuration mode; it is not available in area or process level. Unlike other interface specific parameters, no inheritance will take place from area or process level if this command is not specified at interface level.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
The fallback cost must be set to a higher value than the normal interface cost. The motivation of setting the fallback cost is to cost out an interface or disfavor an interface without shutting it down when its cumulative bandwidth goes below the user specified threshold, so that the traffic can take an alternative path. The normal interface cost will take over when the cumulative bandwidth reaches or exceeds user-specified threshold.
Examples
The following example shows how to set the cost-fallback value for Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS):
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 100
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# router-id 2.2.2.2

Use the default-cost command only on an Area Border Router (ABR) attached to a stub or an NSSA area.
In all routers and access servers attached to the stub area, the area should be configured as a stub area using the stub command in the area submode. Use the default-cost command only on an ABR attached to the stub area. The default-cost command provides the metric for the summary default route generated by the ABR into the stub area.
Examples
The following example shows how to assign a default cost of 20 to a stub area (the Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS) interface 0/4/0/3 is also configured in the stub area):
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 201

Whenever you use the redistribute or default-information originate command to redistribute routes into an OSPF routing domain, the software automatically becomes an Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR). However, an ASBR does not, by default, generate a default route into the OSPF routing domain. The software still must have a default route for itself before it generates one, except when you have specified the always keyword.
For information about routing policies, see the Routing Policy Commands on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR Routing Command Reference.
Examples
The following example shows how to specify a metric of 100 for the default route redistributed into the OSPF routing domain and an external metric type of Type 1:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 109

Use the default-metric command with the redistribute command to cause the current routing protocol to use the same metric value for all redistributed routes. A default metric helps solve the problem of redistributing routes with incompatible metrics. Whenever metrics do not convert, use a default metric to provide a reasonable substitute and enable the redistribution to proceed.
The default-metric value configured in OSPF configuration does not apply to connected routes that are redistributed to OSPF using the redistribute connected command. To set a non-default metric for connected routes, configure OSPF with the redistribute connected metric metric-value command.
Examples
The following example shows how to advertise Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) protocol-derived routes into OSPF and assign a metric of 10:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# default-metric 10

On point-to-point interfaces, only one end of the demand circuit must be configured with this command. Periodic hello messages are suppressed and periodic refreshes of link-state advertisements (LSAs) do not flood the demand circuit. Use the demand-circuit command to allow the underlying data link layer to be closed when the topology is stable. In point-to-multipoint topology, only the multipoint end must be configured with this command.

For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
An administrative distance is an integer from 10 to 255. In general, the higher the value, the lower the trust rating. An administrative distance of 255 means that the routing information source cannot be trusted at all and should be ignored. Weight values are subjective; no quantitative method exists for choosing weight values.
If an access list is used with this command, it is applied when a network is being inserted into the routing table. This behavior allows you to filter networks based on the IP prefix supplying the routing information. For example, you could filter possibly incorrect routing information from networking devices not under your administrative control.
The order in which you enter distance commands can affect the assigned administrative distances in unexpected ways (see the "Examples" section for further clarification).
Table 1 lists default administrative distances.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
You must specify one of the keywords.
Use the distance ospf command to perform the same function as the distance command used with an access list. However, the distance ospf command sets a distance for an entire group of routes, rather than a specific route that passes an access list.
A common reason to use the distance ospf command is when you have multiple OSPF processes with mutual redistribution, and you want to prefer internal routes from one over external routes from the other.
Examples
The following example shows how to change the external distance to 200, making the route less reliable:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# redistribute ospf 2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# distance ospf external 200
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# exit

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
The OSPF domain ID helps OSPF determine how to translate a prefix received through Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) from the remote provider edge (PE). If the domain IDs match, OSPF generates a Type 3 link state advertisement (LSA). If the domain IDs do not match, OSPF generates a Type 5 LSA.
There is only one primary domain ID. There can be multiple secondary domain IDs.
Note Cisco IOS XR uses the OSPF Process ID as the default Domain ID value. However, when you peer an IOS XR router with an IOS router, the two Domain IDs must match. Therefore, you must manually configure the IOS XR Domain ID value to match the IOS default Domain ID value. When these Domain IDs match, the routes have route code "O" because they are learned as intra-area routes. If the Domain IDs do not match, the routes have route code, "O-E2" because they are learned as external routes. Use the show ip ospf command to get the OSPF Domain ID from the IOS router. Then, set the IOS XR Domain ID to that value using the domain-id command.
Examples
The following example shows how to specify a domain ID:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf o1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# vrf v1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-vrf)# domain-id type 0105 value AABBCCDDEEFF
domain-tag
To specify the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) domain tag, use the domain-tag command in VRF configuration mode. To remove an OSPF VRF domain tag, use the no form of this command.
domain-tag tag
no domain-tag
Syntax Description

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
This command allows you to protect the OSPF routing process from the large number of received LSAs that can result from a misconfiguration on another router in the OSPF domain (for example, the redistribution of a large number of IP prefixes to OSPF).
When this feature is enabled, the router keeps count of the number of all received (nonself-generated) LSAs. When the configured threshold value is reached, an error message is logged. When the configured max number of received LSAs is exceeded, the router stops accepting new LSAs.
If the count of received LSAs is higher than the configured max number after one minute, the OSPF process disables all adjacencies in the given context and clears the OSPF database. This state is called the ignore state. In this state, all OSPF packets received on all interfaces belonging to the OSPF instance are ignored and no OSPF packets are generated on its interfaces. The OSPF process remains in the ignore state for the duration of the configured ignore-time. When the ignore-time expires, the OSPF process returns to normal operation and starts building adjacencies on all its interfaces.
To prevent the OSPF instance from endlessly oscillating between its normal state and the ignore state, as a result of the LSA count immediately exceeding the max number again after it returns from the ignore state, the OSPF instance keeps a count of how many times it has been in the ignore state. This counter is called the ignore-count. If the ignore-count exceeds its configured value, the OSPF instance remains in the ignore state permanently.
To return the OSPF instance to its normal state, you must issue the clear ip ospf command. The ignore-count is reset to zero if the LSA count does not exceed the max number again during the time configured by the reset-time keyword.
If you use the warning-only keyword, the OSPF instance never enters the ignore state. When LSA count exceeds the max number, the OSPF process logs an error message and the OSPF instance continues in its normal state operation.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure the OSPF instance to accept 12000 nonself-generated LSAs in the global routing table, and 1000 nonself-generated LSAs in VRF V1.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# max-lsa 12000
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# vrf V1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# max-lsa 1000
The following example shows how to display the current status of the OSPF instance:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# show ospf 0
Routing Process "ospf 0" with ID 10.0.0.2
NSR (Non-stop routing) is Disabled
Supports only single TOS(TOS0) routes
It is an area border router
Maximum number of non self-generated LSA allowed 12000
Current number of non self-generated LSA 1
Threshold for warning message 75%
Ignore-time 5 minutes, reset-time 10 minutes
Ignore-count allowed 5, current ignore-count 0

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Use the max-metric command to cause the software to originate router LSAs with router link metrics set to LSInfinity (0XFFFF). This feature can be useful in Internet backbone routers that run both OSPF and BGP because OSPF converges more quickly than BGP and may begin attracting traffic before BGP has converged, resulting in dropped traffic.
If this command is configured, the router advertises its locally generated router LSAs with a metric of 0XFFFF. This action allows the router to converge but not attract transit traffic if there are better, alternative paths around this router. After the specified announce-time value or notification from BGP has expired, the router advertises the local router LSAs with the normal metric (interface cost).
If this command is configured with the on-startup keyword, then the maximum metric is temporarily set only after reboot is initiated. If this command is configured without the on-startup keyword, then the maximum metric is permanently used until the configuration is removed.
If the include-stub keyword is enabled, the stub-links in the router LSA will be sent with the max-metric. If the summary-lsa keyword is enabled, all self-generated summary LSAs will have a metric set to 0xFF0000, unless the metric value is specified with the max-metric value parameter. If the external-lsa keyword is enabled, all self-generated external LSAs will have a metric set to 0xFF0000, unless the metric value is specified with the max-metric value parameter.
This command might be useful when you want to connect a router to an OSPF network, but do not want real traffic flowing through it if there are better, alternative paths. If there are no alternative paths, this router still accepts transit traffic as before.
Some cases where this command might be useful are as follows:
•During a router reload, you prefer that OSPF wait for BGP to converge before accepting transit traffic. If there are no alternative paths, the router still accepts transit traffic.
•A router is in critical condition (for example, it has a very high CPU load or does not have enough memory to store all LSAs or build the routing table).
•When you want to gracefully introduce or remove a router to or from the network.
•When you have a test router in a lab, connected to a production network.
Note For older OSPF implementations (RFC 1247), router links in received router LSAs with a metric and cost of LSInfinity are not used during SPF calculations. Hence, no transit traffic is set to the routers originating such router LSAs.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure OSPF to originate router LSAs with the maximum metric until BGP indicates that it has converged:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 109
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# max-metric router-lsa on-startup wait-for-bgp
maximum interfaces (OSPF)

For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Use the maximum interface command to increase or decrease the limit on the number of interfaces configured for an OSPF process.
You cannot configure a limit lower than the number of interfaces currently configured for the OSPF process. To lower the limit, remove interfaces from the OSPF configuration until the number of configured interfaces is at or below the desired limit. You may then apply the new, lower limit.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure a maximum interface limit of 700 on a router:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 109
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# maximum interfaces 700

For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Usually, one key individual interface is used to generate authentication information when packets are sent and to authenticate incoming packets. The same key identifier on the neighbor router must have the same key value.
For authentication to be enabled, you must configure the message-digest-key command together with the authentication command and its message-digest keyword. Both the message-digest-key and authentication commands can be inherited from a higher configuration level.
The process of changing keys is as follows. Suppose the current configuration is:
message-digest-key 100 md5 OLD
You change the configuration to the following:
message-digest-key 101 md5 NEW
The system assumes its neighbors do not have the new key yet, so it begins a rollover process. It sends multiple copies of the same packet, each authenticated by different keys. In this example, the system sends out two copies of the same packet—the first one authenticated by key 100 and the second one authenticated by key 101.
Rollover allows neighboring routers to continue communication while the network administrator is updating them with the new key. Rollover stops after the local system finds that all its neighbors know the new key. The system detects that a neighbor has the new key when it receives packets from the neighbor authenticated by the new key.
After all neighbors have been updated with the new key, the old key should be removed. In this example, you would enter the following:
no ospf message-digest-key 100
Then, only key 101 is used for authentication on interface 1.
We recommend that you not keep more than one key individual interface. Every time you add a new key, you should remove the old key to prevent the local system from continuing to communicate with a hostile system that knows the old key. Removing the old key also reduces overhead during rollover.
Note The MD5 key is always stored in encrypted format on the router. The clear and encrypted keywords inform the router whether the value that is entered is encrypted or unencrypted.
Examples
The following example shows how to set a new key 19 with the password 8ry4222:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 109
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0

If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
The OSPF protocol adds both tunnel next-hops (igp-shortcuts) and IPv4 next-hops to the next-hop list in the Routing Information Base (RIB), until it reaches the maximum number of paths. When IGP-intact is enabled, it ensures that the Routing Information Base (RIB) always has at least one IPv4 next-hop present in the list of next-hops when the number of paths is at maximum.
Note IGP-intact should be used only when Policy-Based Tunnel Selection (PBTS) is in use.
Configure IGP-intact only when Policy-Based Tunnel Selection (PBTS) is in use. This ensures that at least one IPv4 next-hop is available for the default Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) traffic class. It also prevents traffic loss for other DSCP traffic classes by diverting such traffic to an IPv4 next-hop when the corresponding tunnel is unavailable for forwarding.
When Policy-Based Tunnel Selection (PBTS) is in use, traffic that is not policy-based is forwarded to an IGP path that may not have fast reroute (FRR) protection. Configuring IGP-intact when PBTS is not in use, causes traffic to be forwarded indiscriminately to an IGP path that may not have FRR protection.
Examples
The following example shows how to enable IGP-intact:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# mpls traffic-eng igp-intact

This identifier of the router acts as a stable IP address for the traffic engineering configuration. This IP address is flooded to all nodes. For all traffic engineering tunnels originating at other nodes and ending at this node, you must set the tunnel destination to the traffic engineering router identifier of the destination node, because that is the address that the traffic engineering topology database at the tunnel head uses for its path calculation.
Note We recommend that loopback interfaces be used for Multiprotocol Label Switching traffic engineering (MPLS TE), because they are more stable than physical interfaces.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
OSPF checks whether OSPF neighbors are using the same MTU on a common interface. This check is performed when neighbors exchange DBD packets. If the receiving MTU in the DBD packet is higher than the MTU configured on the incoming interface, OSPF adjacency is not established.
The keywords, disable and enable, do not need to be used. If no keywords are used, the mtu-ignore command disables MTU checking. You can then use the no mtu-ignore command to activate MTU checking.
Examples
The following example shows how to disable MTU mismatch detection on receiving DBD packets:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 109
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS 0/1/0/3
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# mtu-ignore
multi-area-interface
To enable multiple adjacencies for different Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) areas and enter multi-area interface configuration mode, use the multi-area-interface command in the area configuration mode. To reset to the default, use the no form of this command.

Use the multi-area-interface command to enable area border routers (ABRs) to establish multiple adjacencies for different OSPF areas.
Each multiple area adjacency is announced as a point-to-point unnumbered link in the configured area. This point-to-point link provides a topological path for that area. The first or primary adjacency using the link advertises the link consistent with draft-ietf-ospf-multi-area-adj-06.txt.
Note You can configure multi-area adjacency on any interface where only two OSF speakers are attached. In the case of native broadcast networks, the interface must be configured as an OPSF point-to-point type using the network point-to-point command to enable the interface for a multi-area adjacency.
Examples
The following example shows how to enable multiple area adjacency for OSPF 109:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 109

Related Commands
neighbor (OSPF)
To configure Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routers interconnecting to nonbroadcast networks, use the neighbor command in interface configuration mode. To remove a configuration, use the no form of this command.
neighbor ip-address [cost number] [priority number] [poll-interval seconds]
no neighbor ip-address [cost number] [priority number] [poll-interval seconds]
Syntax Description
ip-address |
Interface IP address of the neighbor. |
cost number |
(Optional) Assigns a cost to the neighbor, in the form of an integer from 1 to 65535. Neighbors with no specific cost configured assume the cost of the interface, based on the cost command. On point-to-multipoint interfaces, cost number is the only keyword and argument combination that works. The cost keyword does not apply to nonbroadcast multiaccess (NBMA) networks. |
priority number |
(Optional) Specifies an 8-bit number indicating the router priority value of the nonbroadcast neighbor associated with the IP address specified. The priority keyword does not apply to point-to-multipoint interfaces. |
poll-interval seconds |
(Optional) Specifies an unsigned integer value (in seconds) reflecting the poll interval. RFC 1247 recommends that this value be much larger than the hello interval. The poll-interval keyword does not apply to point-to-multipoint interfaces. |
Defaults
No configuration is specified.
priority number: 0
poll-interval seconds: 120 seconds (2 minutes)

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
You must include one neighbor entry in the software configuration for each known nonbroadcast network neighbor. The neighbor address must be on the primary address of the interface.
If a neighboring router has become inactive (hello packets have not been received for the router dead interval period), it may still be necessary to send hello packets to the dead neighbor. These hello packets are sent at a reduced rate called the poll interval.
When the router starts up, it sends only hello packets to those routers with nonzero priority; that is, routers that are eligible to become designated routers (DRs) and backup designated routers (BDRs). After the DR and BDR are selected, the DR and BDR start sending hello packets to all neighbors to form adjacencies.
To filter all outgoing OSPF link-state advertisement (LSA) packets for the neighbor, use the neighbor database-filter all out command.
Examples
The following example shows how to declare a router at address 172.16.3.4 on a nonbroadcast network, with a priority of 1 and a poll interval of 180 seconds:
RP/0/0/0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# neighbor 172.16.3.4 priority 1 poll-interval 180
The following example illustrates a network with nonbroadcast:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface POS1/0/0/3
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ip address 172.16.3.10 255.255.255.0

Use the network command to configure broadcast networks as NBMA networks when, for example, routers in your network do not support multicast addressing.
Configuring NBMA networks as either broadcast or nonbroadcast assumes that there are virtual circuits from every router to every router or fully meshed network. However, there are other configurations where this assumption is not true; for example, a partially meshed network. In these cases, you can configure the OSPF network type as a point-to-multipoint network. Routing between two routers that are not directly connected go through the router that has virtual circuits to both routers. You need not configure neighbors when using this command.
If this command is issued on an interface that does not allow it, this command is ignored.
OSPF has two features related to point-to-multipoint networks. One feature applies to broadcast networks; the other feature applies to nonbroadcast networks:
•On point-to-multipoint, broadcast networks, you can use the neighbor command, and you must specify a cost to that neighbor.
•On point-to-multipoint, nonbroadcast networks, you must use the neighbor command to identify neighbors. Assigning a cost to a neighbor is optional.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure the OSPF network as a nonbroadcast network:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS 0/1/0/3
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# network non-broadcast

The NSF feature allows for the forwarding of data packets to continue along known routes while routing protocol information (such as OSPF) is being restored following a switchover.
Use the nsf command if the router is expected to perform NSF during restart. To experience the full benefits of this feature, configure all neighboring routers with NSF.
When this command is used without the optional cisco enforce global keywords and non-NSF neighbors are detected, the NSF restart mechanism aborts on the interfaces of those neighbors and functions properly on others.
When this command is used with the optional cisco enforce global keywords and non-NSF neighbors are detected, NSF restart is canceled for the entire OSPF process.
IETF graceful restart provides an NSF mechanism to allow data traffic to flow seamlessly with no packet drops during the transient period when OSPF attempts to recover after a process restart or RP failover, within the guidelines of RFC 3623.
By default, neighbors in helper mode listen to both the NSF Cisco- and NSF IETF-type LSAs. The nsf command enables one type of mechanism that would undergo an RP failover or, anticipating an OSPF process restart. If the cisco or ietf keyword is not entered, NSF is not enabled, irrespective of neighbors in listening mode for both NSF Cisco and NSF IETF.
Examples
The following example shows how to cancel NSF restart for the entire OSPF process if non-NSF neighbors are detected on any network interface during restart:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1

OSPF routing information is neither sent nor received through the specified interface. The interface appears as a stub network in the OSPF router (Type 1) link-state advertisement (LSA).
Examples
The following example shows that Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS) interface 1/0/0/2 reduces OSPF updates because passive mode is enabled; however, POS interface 0/1/0/3 receives normal OSPF traffic flow:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS1/0/0/2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# passive
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# exit
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS1/0/0/3
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# end
priority (OSPF)
To set the router priority for an interface, which helps determine the designated router for an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) link, use the priority command in the appropriate mode. To return to the default value, use the no form of this command.
priority value
no priority value
Syntax Description
value |
8-bit unsigned integer indicating the router priority value. Range is 0 to 255. |
Defaults
If this command is not specified in interface configuration mode, then the interface adopts the priority parameter specified by the area.
If this command is not specified in area configuration mode, then the interface adopts the priority parameter specified for the process.
If this command is not specified at any level, then the default priority is 1.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
When two routers attached to a network both attempt to become the designated router, the one with the higher router priority takes precedence. If there is a tie, the router with the higher router ID takes precedence. A router with a router priority set to zero is ineligible to become the designated router or backup designated router. Router priority is configured only for interfaces to multiaccess networks (in other words, not point-to-point networks).
This priority value is used when you configure the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol for nonbroadcast networks using the neighbor command for OSPF.
Examples
The following example shows that priority is set through the priority and neighbor commands for Routers A and B and that the neighbor priority value must reflect that of the neighbor router:
Router A
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface POS 0/1/0/1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ipv4 address 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.0

For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Use the range command only with Area Border Router (ABRs). Use the command to consolidate or summarize routes for an area. The result is that a single summary route is advertised to other areas by the ABR. Routing information is condensed at area boundaries. External to the area, a single route is advertised for each address range. This process is called route summarization.
Multiple range configurations specifying the range command can be configured. Thus, the OSPF protocol can summarize addresses for many different sets of address ranges.
The summarized route uses the maximum cost of the routes assumed in the range.
Examples
The following example shows area 36.0.0.0 consisting of interfaces whose IP addresses have "10.31.x.x" as the first two octets. The range command summarizes interfaces. Instead of advertising eight networks individually, the single route 10.31.0.0 255.255.0.0 is advertised:

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Note When redistributing routes (into OSPF) using both command keywords for setting or matching of attributes and a route policy, the routes are run through the route policy first, followed by the keyword matching and setting.
Redistributed routing information should always be filtered by the policy policy-name keyword and argument. This filtering ensures that only those routes intended by the administrator are redistributed into OSPF.
For information about routing policies, see the Routing Policy Commands on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR Routing Command Reference.
OSPF Considerations
Whenever you use the redistribute or default-information originate (OSPF) command to redistribute routes into an OSPF routing domain, the router automatically becomes an ASBR. However, an ASBR does not, by default, generate a default route into the OSPF routing domain.
When routes are redistributed between OSPF processes, no OSPF metrics are preserved.
When routes are redistributed into OSPF and no metric is specified with the metric keyword, OSPF uses 20 as the default metric for routes from all protocols except BGP routes, which get a metric of 1.
Examples
The following example shows how to cause BGP routes to be redistributed into an OSPF domain:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 110
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# redistribute bgp 100
The following example shows how to redistribute the specified IS-IS process routes into an OSPF domain. The IS-IS routes are redistributed with a metric of 100.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 109
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# redistribute isis 108 metric 100
In the following example, network 10.0.0.0 appears as an external link-state advertisement (LSA) in OSPF 1:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface POS 0/1/0/1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ip address 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface POS 0/2/0/2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# ip address 10.99.0.0 255.0.0.0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# redistribute ospf 2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS 0/2/0/2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS 0/1/0/1

When a router sends an LSA to its neighbor, it keeps the LSA until it receives the acknowledgment message. If the router receives no acknowledgment, it resends the LSA.
The setting of this parameter should be conservative, or needless retransmission results. The value should be larger for serial lines and virtual links.

It is good practice to use the router-id command to explicitly specify a unique 32-bit numeric value for the router ID. This action ensures that OSPF can function regardless of the interface address configuration. Clear the OSPF process using the clear ospf process command or restart the OSPF process for the no router-id command to take effect.
OSPF attempts to obtain a router ID in the following ways (in order of preference):
1. By default, when the OSPF process initializes, it checks if there is a router-id in the checkpointing database.
2. The 32-bit numeric value specified by the OSPF router-id command in router configuration mode. (This value can be any 32-bit value. It is not restricted to the IPv4 addresses assigned to interfaces on this router, and need not be a routable IPv4 address.)
3. The ITAL selected router-id.
4. The primary IPv4 address of an interface over which this OSPF process is running. The first interface address in the OSPF interface is selected.
Note Unlike OSPF version 3, OSPF version 2 is guaranteed to have at least one interface with an IPv4 address configured.
Examples
The following example shows how to assign the 32-bit numeric value 172.20.10.10 to the OSPF process 109:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 109
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# router-id 172.20.10.10

The security ttl command is used for the Generalized TTL Security Mechanism (GTSM) feature to prevent network attacks.
During the act of receiving Link State Advertisement (LSA) from neighbors, network attacks can occur, because there are no checks that unicast or multicast packets are originating from a neighbor that is one hop away or multiple hops away over virtual links.
For virtual links, OSPF packets travel multiple hops across the network; hence, the TTL value can be decremented several times. For these type of links, a minimum TTL value must be allowed and accepted for multiple-hop packets.
To filter network attacks originating from invalid sources traveling over multiple hops, the GTSM, RFC 3682, is used to prevent the attacks. GTSM filters link-local addresses and allows for only one-hop neighbor adjacencies through the configuration of TTL value 255. The TTL value in the IP header is set to when OSPF packets are originated and checked on the received OSPF packets against the default GTSM TTL value 255 or the user configured GTSM TTL value, blocking unauthorized OSPF packets originated from TTL hops away.
Examples
The following example shows how to set the security TTL for an interface:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0

Syntax Description
process-name |
(Optional) OSPF process name that uniquely identifies an OSPF routing process. The process name is any alphanumeric string no longer than 40 characters. If this argument is included, only information for the specified routing process is included. |
vrf |
(Optional) Specifies an OSPF VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) instance. |
vrf-name |
(Optional) Name of the OSPF VRF. The vrf-name argument can be specified as an arbitrary string. The strings "default" and "all" are reserved VRF names. |
all |
(Optional) Specifies all OSPF VRF instances. |
area-id |
(Optional) Area number used to define the particular area. |
adv-router ip-address |
(Optional) Displays all LSAs of the specified router. |
asbr-summary |
(Optional) Displays information only about the Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR) summary LSAs. |
link-state-id |
(Optional) Portion of the Internet environment that is being described by the advertisement. The value entered depends on the link-state type of the advertisement. It must be entered in the form of an IP address. When the link-state advertisement (LSA) is describing a network, the link-state-id can take one of two forms: •The network IP address (as in Type 3 summary link advertisements and in autonomous system external link advertisements). •A derived address obtained from the link-state ID. Note Masking the link-state ID of a network link advertisement with the subnet mask of the network yields the IP address of the network. When the LSA is describing a router, the link-state ID is always the OSPF router ID of the described router. When an autonomous system external advertisement (LS Type = 5) is describing a default route, its link-state ID is set to Default Destination (0.0.0.0). |
internal |
(Optional) Displays internal LSA information. |
self-originate |
(Optional) Displays only self-originated LSAs (from the local router). |
database-summary |
(Optional) Displays how many of each type of LSA for each area there are in the database and the total. |
external |
(Optional) Displays information only about the external LSAs. |
network |
(Optional) Displays information only about the network LSAs. |
nssa-external |
(Optional) Displays information only about the not-so-stubby area (NSSA) external LSAs. |
opaque-area |
(Optional) Displays information about the opaque Type 10 LSAs. Type 10 denotes an area-local scope. Refer to RFC 2370 for more information on the opaque LSA options. |
opaque-as |
(Optional) Displays information about the opaque Type 11 LSAs. Type 11 denotes that the LSA is flooded throughout the autonomous system. |
opaque-link |
(Optional) Displays information about the opaque Type 9 LSAs. Type 9 denotes a link-local scope. |
router |
(Optional) Displays information only about the router LSAs. |
summary |
(Optional) Displays information only about the summary LSAs. |

The various forms of the show ospf database command deliver information about different OSPF link-state advertisements. This command can be used to examine the link-state database (LSD) and its contents. Each router participating in an area having identical database entries pertaining to that area (with the exception of LSAs that are being flooded). Numerous options (such as network and router) are used to display portions of the database.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
You might use this command when the databases of two neighboring routers are out of synchronization or if the adjacency does not form between them. Adjacency means that the routers synchronize their databases when they discover each other.
You can look at the list to determine if one router is trying to request a particular database update. Entries that appear to be suspended in the list usually indicate that updates are not being delivered. One possible reason for this behavior is a maximum transmission unit (MTU) mismatch between the routers.
You might also look at this list to make sure it is not corrupted. The list should refer to database entries that actually exist.
Request list information is transient and normally the lists are empty.

Use the show ospf route command to display the OSPF private routing table (which contains only routes calculated by OSPF). If there is something wrong with a route in the RIB, then it is useful to check the OSPF copy of the route to determine if it matches the RIB contents. If it does not match, there is a synchronization problem between OSPF and the RIB. If the routes match and the route is incorrect, OSPF has made an error in its routing calculation.

Use the summary-prefix command to cause an OSPF Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR) to advertise one external route as an aggregate for all redistributed routes that are covered by the address. This command summarizes only routes from other routing protocols that are being redistributed into OSPF.
You can use this command multiple times to summarize multiple groups of addresses. The metric used to advertise the summary is the lowest metric of all the more specific routes. This command helps reduce the size of the routing table.
If you want to summarize routes between OSPF areas, use the range command.
Examples
In the following example, summary address 10.1.0.0 includes address 10.1.1.0, 10.1.2.0, 10.1.3.0, and so on. Only the address 10.1.0.0 is advertised in an external link-state advertisement.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 201
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# summary-prefix 10.1.0.0 255.255.0.0

OSPF LSA group pacing is enabled by default. For typical customers, the default group pacing interval for refreshing, checksumming, and aging is appropriate and you need not configure this feature.
The duration of the LSA group pacing is inversely proportional to the number of LSAs the router is handling. For example, if you have approximately 10,000 LSAs, decreasing the pacing interval would benefit you. If you have a very small database (40 to 100 LSAs), increasing the pacing interval to 10 to 20 minutes might benefit you slightly
Examples
The following example shows how to change the OSPF pacing between LSA groups to 60 seconds:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# timers lsa group-pacing 60

For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
The lsa-start time is the delay before flooding the first instance of an LSA. The lsa-hold interval is the minimum time to elapse before flooding an updated instance of an LSA. The lsa-max-wait time is the maximum time that can elapse before flooding an updated instance of an LSA.
For quick convergence, use smaller times for the lsa-start time and lsa-hold interval. However, in relatively large networks, this may result in a large number of LSAs being flooded in a relatively short time. A balance with the lsa-start time and lsa-hold interval can be iteratively arrived at for the size of your network. The lsa-max-wait time can be used to ensure that OSPF reconverges within a reasonable amount of time.
Note LSA throttling is always enabled. You can change the timer values with the timers throttle lsa all command or specify the no keyword to revert back to the default settings.
Examples
The following example shows how to change the start, hold, and maximum wait interval values to 5, 1000, and 90,000 milliseconds, respectively:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
The spf-start time is the delay before running SPF for the first time. The spf-hold interval is the minimum time to elapse between subsequent SPF runs. The spf-max-wait time is the maximum time that can elapse before running SPF again.
Tip Setting a low spf-start time and spf-hold time causes routing to switch to the alternate path more quickly if there is a failure; however, it consumes more CPU processing time.
Examples
The following example shows how to change the start, hold, and maximum wait interval values to 5, 1000, and 90000 milliseconds, respectively:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# timers throttle spf 5 1000 90000
transmit-delay (OSPF)
To set the estimated time required to send a link-state update packet on the interface, use the transmit-delay command in the appropriate mode. To return to the default value, use the no form of this command.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Link-state advertisements (LSAs) in the update packet must have their ages incremented by the amount specified in the seconds argument before transmission. The value assigned should take into account the transmission and propagation delays for the interface.
If the delay is not added before transmission over a link, this means that the time in which the LSA propagates over the link is not considered. This setting has significance only on very low-speed networks not supported in Cisco IOS XR software or on networks such as satellite circuits that incur a very long (greater than one second) delay time.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure a transmit delay for Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS) interface POS 0/3/0/0:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# interface POS 0/3/0/0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-if)# transmit-delay 3

All areas in an OSPF autonomous system must be physically connected to the backbone area (area 0). In some cases in which this physical connection is not possible, you can use a virtual link to connect to the backbone through a nonbackbone area. You can also use virtual links to connect two parts of a partitioned backbone through a nonbackbone area. The area through which you configure the virtual link, known as a transit area, must have full routing information. The transit area cannot be a stub or not-so-stubby area.
Examples
The following example shows how to establish a virtual link with default values for all optional parameters:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 201
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 10.0.0.0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# virtual-link 10.3.4.5
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-vl)#
The following example shows how to establish a virtual link with clear text authentication called mykey:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 201
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# area 10.0.0.0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar)# virtual-link 10.3.4.5
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-ar-vl)# authentication-key 0 mykey

To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator.

Use the vrf command to explicitly configure a VRF. Commands configured under the VRF configuration mode (such as the interface [OSPF] and authentication commands) are automatically bound to that vrf.
To modify or remove the VRF, the vrf-id argument format must be the same as the format used when creating the area.
Note To remove the specified VRF from the router configuration, use the no vrf vrf-id command. The no vrf vrf-id command removes the VRF and all VRF options, such as authentication, default-cost, nssa, range, stub, virtual-link, and interface.
To avoid possibly having the router ID change under a VRF, explicitly configure the router ID using the router-id command.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure VRF vrf1 and Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS) interface 0/2/0/0. POS interface 0/2/0/0 is bound to VRF vrf1 automatically.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router ospf 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf)# vrf vrf1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-ospf-vrf)# interface POS 0/2/0/0
