DETAILED STEPS
You can configure the following optional parameters for OSPFv2 in router configuration mode:
Command
distance number
Example:
switch(config-router)# distance 25
log-adjacency-changes [detail]
Example:
switch(config-router)#
log-adjacency-changes
maximum-paths path-number
Example:
switch(config-router)# maximum-paths 4
The following example shows how to create an OSPFv2 instance:
switch# config t
switch(config)# router ospf 201
switch(config-router)# copy running-config startup-config

Configuring Networks in OSPFv2

You can configure a network to OSPFv2 by associating it through the interface that the router uses to
connect to that network (see the
default backbone area (Area 0), or you can create new areas using any decimal number or an IP address.
All areas must connect to the backbone area either directly or through a virtual link.
Note
OSPF is not enabled on an interface until you configure a valid IP address for that interface.
Note
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ensure that you have enabled the OSPF feature (see the
page
Ensure that you are in the correct VDC (or use the switchto vdc command).
