NETGEAR M4350-24F4V 24-Port 10G SFP+ Managed AV Network Switch - Manual (Page 482)

The OSPF Virtual Link Configuration page displays.
6. In the Area ID field, enter an OSPF area ID.
An area ID is a 32-bit integer in dotted-decimal format that identifies the area to
which a switch interface connects.
7. In the Neighbor Router ID field, enter the neighbor portion of a virtual link
specification.
8. In the Hello Interval field, enter the OSPF hello interval for the interface.
This interval must be the same for all routers and switches in the network. The interval
ranges from 1 to 65,535 seconds. The default is 10 seconds.
9. In the Dead Interval field, enter the number of seconds that the interface waits for
a neighbor’s hello packets before determining that the neighbor is down.
This interval must be the same for all routers and switches in the network. This interval
must be a multiple of the hello interval. The interval ranges from 1 to 65,535. The
default is 40 seconds. (The default hello interval is 10 seconds.)
10. In the Iftransit Delay Interval field, enter the estimated number of seconds required
to transmit a link state update packet over the interface.
The interval range from 1 to 3600 seconds (1 hour). The default is 1 second.
11. In the Retransmit Interval field, enter the number of seconds between link-state
advertisements for adjacencies, that is, for neighboring devices that form an OSPF
adjacency with the interface.
The interval is also used when retransmitting database descriptions and link-state
request packets. The value for the interval ranges from 1 to 3600 seconds (1 hour).
The default is 5 seconds.
12. From the Authentication Type menu, select if communication over the interface is
authenticated and encrypted:
• None: The interface does not use authentication and encryption. This is the
default settings.
• Simple: The interface prompts you to enter an authentication key. This key is
included (non-encrypted) in the OSPF header of all packets sent on the network.
All routers and switches on the network must be configured with the same key.
• Encrypt: The interface prompts you to enter an authentication key and an
authentication ID. Encryption uses the MD5 Message-Digest algorithm. All routers
and switches on the network must be configured with the same key and ID.
13. In the Authentication Key field, enter the OSPF authentication key for the interface.
If you select Simple from the Authentication Type menu, you can set a key with
maximum of 8 octets. If you select Encrypt from the Authentication Type menu,
you can set a key with maximum of 16 octets.
