Dead Interval
Set the OSPF dead interval.
Within the dead interval, if the interface receives no hello packet from the neighbor, it
declares that the neighbor is down.
The default dead interval is 40 seconds on P2P, Broadcast interfaces and 120 seconds on
P2MP and NBMA interfaces.
The dead interval should be at least four times the hello interval on an interface. The interfaces
on a specific network segment must have the same dead interval.
Authentication
Mode
Set the authentication mode and parameters for authenticating OSPF packets on the interface.
• If the Authentication Mode is null, the interface does not authenticate OSPF packets, and
the Key String and Key ID are not required.
• If Simple is specified for Authentication Mode, the interface authenticates OSPF packets
using simple text key. You need to configure a Key String in simple text. When you view the
configuration file, the authentication key is displayed in simple text.
• If MD5 is specified for Authentication Mode, the interface authenticates OSPF packets
using MD5 authentication. You need to configure a Key String in cipher text and a Key ID.
• If HMAC-MD5 is specified for Authentication Mode, the interface authenticates OSPF
packets using HMAC-MD5 authentication. You need to configure a Key String in cipher text
and a Key ID.
