Configuring the OSPF Routing Protocol
CLI Commands To set up NBMA neighbors on OSPF, you must first create an OSPF
interface.
After you create an OSPF interface, use the following command to set up
NBMA neighbors:
(configure router:ospf)# nbma-neighbor <ip address>
Removing NBMA Neighbors
You can remove NBMA neighbors using either the Web Agent or the CLI.
CLI Command To remove the NBMA neighbors using the CLI, enter the following
command at the
(configure router:ospf)# prompt:
(configure router:ospf)# no nbma-neighbor <ip address>
* Note: Do not change the type of interface after you have created it. If
you need to change the interface type, delete the old one and
create a new one.
* Note: Poll-interval of NBMA interface decreases in value to 0, during
the operation. It does not affect the operation of OSPF on an
NBMA interface. A panic message will display. Ignore this
message.
* Note: NBMA RIP2 Poison Reverse in MD5 mode does not advertise
all the routes in the Route Table.
RIP2 MD5 Authentication sequence numbers do not persist after you reset
the switch.
