configuration commands for the routers in the stub area: stub and default-cost. All routers

connected to the stub area should be configured with area stub command. As for area

border routers connected to the stub area, their introducing cost is defined with area

default-cost command.

Example:

Switch # config terminal

Switch (config)# router ipv6 ospf

Switch (config-router)# area 1 stub

Relevant Commands: area default-cost

13.7.3.4 area virtual-link

Command: area <id> virtual-link A.B.C.D [instance-id <instance-id> | INTERVAL

<value>]

no area <id> virtual-link A.B.C.D [instance-id <instance-id> |

|INTERVAL]

Function:

Configure a logical link between two backbone areas physically divided by

non-backbone area. The “no area <id> virtual-link A.B.C.D [instance-id <instance-id>

| |INTERVAL]

” command removes this virtual-link.

Parameter: <id>

is the area number which could be digits ranging between 0 ~

4294967295, and also as an IP address.

<instance-id> is the interface instance ID ranging between 0~255 and defaulted at 0

INTERVAL= [dead-interval|hello-interval|retransmit-interval|transmit-delay]

<value>:

The delay or interval seconds, ranging between 1~65535

<dead-interval>:

A neighbor is considered offline for certain dead interval without

its group messages which the default is 40 seconds.

<hello-interval>:

The time interval before the router sends a hello group message,

default is 10 seconds

<retransmit-interval>:

The time interval before a router retransmitting a group

message, default is 5 seconds

<transmit-delay>:

The time delay before a router sending a group messages, 1

second by default

Default:

No default configuration.

Command Mode:

OSPFv3 protocol mode

Usage Guide:

In the OSPF all non-backbone areas will be connected to a backbone

area. If the connection to the backbone area is lost, virtual link will repair this connection.

You can configure virtual link between any two backbone areas routers connected with

the public non-backbone area. The protocol treat routers connected by virtual links as a

point-to-point network
