Dell PowerEdge FN I/O Module Configuration Guide 9.10(0.0)

In the Dell Networking OS, you can modify the OSPF settings on the interfaces.

• Change the cost associated with OSPF traffic on the interface. CONFIG-INTERFACE mode ip ospf cost
  • cost : The range is from 1 to 65535 (the default depends on the interface speed).
• Change the time interval the router waits before declaring a neighbor dead. CONFIG-INTERFACE mode ip ospf dead-interval seconds
  • seconds : the range is from 1 to 65535 (the default is 40 seconds).
  The dead interval must be four times the hello interval. The dead interval must be the same on all routers in the OSPF network.
• Change the time interval between hello-packet transmission. CONFIG-INTERFACE mode ip ospf hello-interval seconds
  • seconds : the range is from 1 to 65535 (the default is 10 seconds).
  The hello interval must be the same on all routers in the OSPF network.
• Use the MD5 algorithm to produce a message digest or key, which is sent instead of the key. CONFIG-INTERFACE mode ip ospf message-digest-key keyid md5 key
  • keyid : the range is from 1 to 255.
  • Key : a character string.
  • NOTE: Be sure to write down or otherwise record the key. You cannot learn the key after it is configured. You must be careful when changing this key.
  • NOTE: You can configure a maximum of six digest keys on an interface. Of the available six digest keys, the switches select the MD5 key that is common. The remaining MD5 keys are unused.
• Change the priority of the interface, which is used to determine the Designated Router for the OSPF broadcast network. CONFIG-INTERFACE mode ip ospf priority number
  • number : the range is from 0 to 255 (the default is 1).
• Change the retransmission interval between LSAs. CONFIG-INTERFACE mode ip ospf retransmit-interval seconds
  • seconds : the range is from 1 to 65535 (the default is 5 seconds).
  The retransmit interval must be the same on all routers in the OSPF network.
• Change the wait period between link state update packets sent out the interface. CONFIG-INTERFACE mode ip ospf transmit-delay seconds
  • seconds : the range is from 1 to 65535 (the default is 1 second).
  The transmit delay must be the same on all routers in the OSPF network.
