Configurable Data

Object

Description

Import Summary LSAs Select enable or disable from the pulldown menu. If you select enable summary

LSAs will be imported into stub areas.

Metric Value

Enter the metric value you want applied for the default route advertised into the

stub area. Valid values range from 1 to 16,777,215.

Metric Type

Select the type of metric specified in the Metric Value field.

OSPF Metric - Regular OSPF metric

Comparable Cost - External Type 1 metrics that are comparable to the

OSPF metric

Non-comparable Cost - External Type 2 metrics that are assumed to be

larger than the cost of the OSPF metric

Non-Configurable Data

Object

Description

Area ID -

The OSPF area. An Area ID is a 32 bit integer in dotted decimal format that

uniquely identifies the area to which a router interface connects.

Aging Interval -

The Link State Advertisement (LSA) aging timer interval.

External Routing -

A definition of the router's capabilities for the area, including whether or not

AS-external-LSAs are flooded into/throughout the area. If the area is a stub area,

then these are the possible options for which you may configure the external

routing capability, otherwise the only option is "Import External LSAs".

Import External LSAs - Import and propagate external LSAs

Import No LSAs - Do not import and propagate external LSAs

Authentication Type -

Currently set to 'None'.

SPF Runs -

The number of times that the intra-area route table has been calculated using this

area's link-state database. This is typically done using Dijkstra's algorithm.

Area Border Router

Count -

The total number of area border routers reachable within this area. This is initially

zero, and is calculated in each SPF Pass.

Area LSA Count -

The total number of link-state advertisements in this area's link-state database,

excluding AS External LSAs.

Area LSA Checksum -

The 32-bit unsigned sum of the link-state advertisements' LS checksums

contained in this area's link-state database. This sum excludes external (LS type

5) link-state advertisements. The sum can be used to determine if there has been
