    22 Common OSPF Operations

    This chapter uses the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) network shown in Figure 22-1 as an
    example to describe common OSPF operations.

    Configuring Basic OSPF Functions


    The following uses the configuration of SwitchA as an example. The configurations of other
    switches are similar to the configuration of SwitchA.

    Configuring a Stub Area


    A stub area is a special area where an area border router (ABR) does not flood received
    autonomous system (AS) external routes, which significantly reduces the routing table size
    and transmitted routing information of routers. A border area on an OSPF network is often
    configured as a stub area. For example, configure Area1 as a stub area.
    The following uses the configuration of SwitchA as an example. The configurations of other
    switches in Area1 are similar to the configuration of SwitchA.
    [SwitchA] ospf 1
    [SwitchA-ospf-1] area 1
    [SwitchA-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.1] stub
    [SwitchA-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.1] quit
    [SwitchA-ospf-1] quit

    Configuring an NSSA
    In a not-so-stubby area (NSSA), an ABR does not flood AS external routes received from
    other areas, similar to the situation in a stub area. The difference is that an ABR can import
    and flood AS external routes to the entire OSPF domain. A border area connected to another
    AS on an OSPF network is often configured as an NSSA. For example, configure Area2 as an
    NSSA.
    The following uses the configuration of SwitchB as an example. The configurations of other
    switches in Area2 are similar to the configuration of SwitchB.
    [SwitchB] ospf 1
    [SwitchB-ospf-1] area 2
    [SwitchB-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.2] nssa
    [SwitchB-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.2] quit
    [SwitchB-ospf-1] quit

    Configuring OSPF to Import Routes


    To access a device running a non-OSPF protocol, an OSPF-capable device needs to import
    routes of the non-OSPF protocol into the OSPF network. For example, configure OSPF to
    import direct routes of SwitchF into the OSPF network.
    [SwitchF] ospf 1
    [SwitchF-ospf-1] import-route direct
    [SwitchF-ospf-1] quit

    Setting the OSPF Interface Cost


    OSPF automatically calculates the cost of an interface according to the interface bandwidth by
    default. You can also manually set the OSPF interface cost. For example, set the cost of
    VLANIF 20 on SwitchA to 5.
    [SwitchA] interface vlanif 20
    [SwitchA-Vlanif20] ospf cost 5
    [SwitchA-Vlanif20] quit

    Configuring Association Between OSPF and BFD


    To accelerate OSPF convergence when the status of a link changes, you can configure
    bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) on OSPF links. After detecting a link failure, BFD
    notifies OSPF of the failure, which triggers fast OSPF convergence. When the OSPF neighbor
    relationship is Down, the BFD session is deleted dynamically.
    For example, set up a BFD session on the OSPF link between SwitchA and SwitchB.
    # Configure SwitchA.
    [SwitchA] bfd
    [SwitchA-bfd] quit
    [SwitchA] ospf 1
    [SwitchA-ospf-1] bfd all-interfaces enable
    [SwitchA-ospf-1] quit

    # Configure SwitchB.
    [SwitchB] bfd
    [SwitchB-bfd] quit
    [SwitchB] ospf 1
    [SwitchB-ospf-1] bfd all-interfaces enable
    [SwitchB-ospf-1] quit

    Configuring OSPF to Advertise Default Routes


    Multiple switches for next-hop backup or traffic load balancing often reside on the area
    border and AS border of an OSPF network. A default route can be configured to reduce
    routing entries and improve resource usage on the OSPF network.
    The advertising mode of the default route is determined by the type of the area to which the
    default route is imported, as shown in Table 22-1.
