Usage
Information
To enable OSPF on an interface, the network area command must include, in its range of addresses,
the primary IP address of an interface.
NOTE: An interface can be attached only to a single OSPF area.
If you delete all the network area commands for Area 0, the show ip ospf command output does not
list Area 0.
passive-interface
Suppress both receiving and sending routing updates on an interface.
Syntax
passive-interface {default | interface}
To enable both the receiving and sending routing, use the no passive-interface interface
command.
To return all OSPF interfaces (current and future) to active, use the no passive-interface
default command.
