Command Syntax and Usage
areaid <IP address>
 
Defines the IP address of the OSPF area number.
type transit|stub|nssa
 
Defines the type of area. For example, when a virtual link has to be established with the backbone, the area type must be defined as transit.
*Transit area — Allows area summary information to be exchanged between routing Alteons. Any area that is not a stub area or NSSA is considered to be transit area.
*Stub area — An area where external routing information is not distributed. Typically, a stub area is connected to only one other area.
*NSSA — Not-So-Stubby Area (NSSA) is similar to a stub area with additional capabilities. For example, routes originating from within the NSSA can be propagated to adjacent transit and backbone areas. External routes from outside the AS can be advertised within the NSSA but are not distributed into other areas.
metric <metric value (1-65535)>
 
Configures a stub area to send a numeric metric value. All routes received via that stub area carry the configured metric to potentially influencing routing decisions.
Metric value assigns the priority for choosing the Alteon for the default route. The metric type determines the method for influencing routing decisions for external routes.
mtype <v3|compare-cost|noncompare-cost>
 
Defines the stub metric type.
Default: v3
trole <always|candidate>
 
Defines the translator role.
Default: candidate
summary <ena|dis>
 
Sets the summary import state.
Default: dis
spf <interval (0-255)>
 
Sets time interval between two successive SPF (shortest path first) calculations of the shortest path tree using Dijkstra’s algorithm.
enable
 
Enables the OSPFv3 area.
disable
 
Disables the OSPFv3 area.
delete
 
Deletes the OSPFv3 area.
cur
 
Displays the current OSPFv3 configuration.
