OSPF Global Configuration Mode

OSPF commands allow you to configure global OSPF (Open Shortest Path
First) parameters. The system supports OSPF version 2 as defined in RFC
1583.

OSPF global configuration mode allows you to enable the protocol on a
system-wide basis, and set system-wide OSPF parameters — such as
router ID — and default OSPF parameters.

All OSPF areas to which you want this system to belong must be configured
within this mode. You then assign areas to OSPF-enabled IP interfaces on an
individual basis within IP interface mode. For example, if you want three IP
interfaces to belong to three separate areas, you must first define the three
areas using the ospf area command within this configuration mode. You
can then use the ip ospf

command within the IP interface configuration

mode to assign the interface to one of the areas.

You can also set OSPF cost and dead-interval on a per-area basis.
Configuration on a per-IP-interface basis overrides the same values that you
define in OSPF global configuration mode.

To enter OSPF global configuration mode, type router ospf from any mode,
or type ospf from router mode.
