network-type
{broadcast | non-
broadcast
| point-to-
multipoint
| point-to-point}

Specify the type of network to

which the interface is

connected.
OSPF supports four different

types of network. This

command specifies the

behavior of the OSPF interface

according to the network type.
If you specify the non-

broadcast keyword, you

must also configure neighbors

using

“config neighbor” on

page 177

.

broadcast All models.

priority
<priority_integer>

Set the router priority for this

interface.
Router priority is used during

the election of a designated

router (DR) and backup

designated router (BDR).
An interface with router priority

set to 0 can not be elected DR

or BDR. The interface with the

highest router priority wins the

election. If there is a tie for

router priority, router ID is

used.
Point-to-point networks do not

elect a DR or BDR; therefore,

this setting has no effect on a

point-to-point network.
The valid range for

priority_integer is 0 to

255.

All models.

retransmit-interval
<seconds_integer>

The time, in seconds, to wait

before sending a LSA

retransmission. The value for

the retransmit interval must be

greater than the expected

round-trip delay for a packet.

The valid range for

seconds_integer is 1 to

65535.

All models.

status
{disable | enable}

Enable or disable OSPF on

this interface.

All models.

transmit-delay
<seconds_integer>

The estimated time, in

seconds, required to send a

link state update packet on this

interface.
OSPF increments the age of

the LSAs in the update packet

to account for transmission

and propagation delays on the

interface.
Increase the value for

transmit-delay on low

speed links.
The valid range for

seconds_integer is 1 to

65535.
