Configuring OSPF Routing
Configuring OSPF routing in the MAX
MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide 8-13
RIP=Off
Pool=0
(For detailed information, see Chapter 9, “Configuring IP Routing.”)
2 Open the OSPF Options subprofile and enable the RunOSPF parameter.
RunOSPF=Yes
3 Set the Area parameter to specify the area ID number for the remote device and set the
AreaType parameter to specify the area type.
The area number must always be specified in dotted-quad format similar to an IP address.
For example:
Area=0.0.0.0
AreaType=Normal
You should use the same area number for the Ethernet interface of the MAX and each of
its WAN links. In this example, the Ethernet interface is in the backbone area (0.0.0.0).
You can use any area numbering scheme that is consistent throughout the AS and that uses
this format.
4 Leave the HelloInterval, DeadInterval, and Priority parameters with values set to their
defaults. Set the Priority parameter to configure the MAX as a DR or BDR.
HelloInterval=40
DeadInterval=120
Priority=5
5 If you require authentication to get into the backbone area, set the AuthType parameter to
specify the method of authentication and set the AuthKey parameter to specify the
password. For example:
AuthType=Simple
AuthKey=lucent0
If you do not require authentication, set AuthType to None.
6 Set the Cost parameter to specify the cost for the route to MAX-2.
For example, for a T1 link the cost should be at least ten.
Cost=10
7 Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
8 Reset the MAX to start OSPF operations.
Note: The remote MAX unit must have a comparable Connection profile to connect to
MAX-1.
Configuring a WAN link that does not support OSPF
In this example, the MAX has a Connection profile to a remote Pipeline unit across a BRI link
(as in Figure 8-6 on page 8-9). The remote Pipeline is an IP router that uses RIP-v2 to transmit
routes. The route to the Pipeline unit’s network, and any routes the MAX learns about from the
remote Pipeline, are ASEs (external to the OSPF system).
To enable OSPF to add the RIP-v2 routes to its routing table, configure RIP-v2 normally in this
Connection profile. OSPF imports all RIP routes as Type-2 ASEs.
In this example, RIP is turned off on the link and ASE information is configured explicitly.
