14.6.2 Configuring Interfaces for Point-to-Multipoint Networks
As in the case of NBMA networks, a list of neighboring routers reachable over a PMP network should be configured
so that the router can discover its neighbors.
To specify a reachable neighbor on a point-to-multipoint network, enter the following command in Configure mode:
14.6.3 Configuring Interfaces for Point-to-Point Networks
By default, OSPF packets are multicast to neighbors on an OSP point-to-point network. If an IP interface that is using
PPP is to be treated as an OSPF broadcast network, then use the
type broadcast
option of the
ospf add
interface
command. But if a remote neighbor does not support multicasting and you would like to unicast OSPF
packets, enter the following command in Configure mode:
14.7 CONFIGURING OSPF INTERFACE
PARAMETERS
The RS provides a number of parameters that are set at the interface level. To set OSPF interface parameters, enter the
following command in Configure mode:
This section describes parameters that are of special significance to interfaces. For information about parameters that
can be set globally, refer to
Section 14.9, "Configuring OSPF Parameters."
Specify an OSPF
point-to-multipoint neighbor.
ospf add pmp-neighbor
<IPaddr>
to-interface
<name-or-IPaddr>
Force point-to-point interfaces to
unicast OSPF packets. ospf set interface
<name-or-IPaddr>
no-multicast
Set OSPF interface parameters.
