Use the network command to specify a network to operate with OSPF. 

There are two ways to show network information configurations. Firstly, shows IP address 
with bitmask like “10.0.0.0/8”. Secondly, shows IP address with wildcard bit information 
like “10.0.0.0 0.0.0.255”. The variable option after area must be IP address or OSPF area 
ID. 

To configure a network, use the following command. 

  A.B.C.D/M  area {<0-

4294967295> | A.B.C.D} 

  A.B.C.D A.B.C.D  area 

{<0-4294967295> | A.B.C.D} 

Router 

Specifies a network with OSPF area ID. 
0-4294967295: OSPF area ID 

 

The hiD 6615 S323 supports 4 types of OSPF ABR which are Cisco type ABR (RFC 
3509), IBM type ABR (RFC 3509), IETF Draft type and RFC 2328 type. 

To configure ABR type of OSPF, use the following command. 

  {cisco | ibm | 

 | standard} 

Selects an ABR type. 
cisco: cisco type ABR, RFC 3509 (default) 
ibm: IBM type ABR, RFC 3509 
shortcut: IETF draft type 
standard: RFC 2328 type 

  ospf  abr-type  {cisco | ibm | 

 | standard} 

Router 

Deletes a configured ABR type. 

 

OSPF protocol in the hiD 6615 S323 uses RFC 2328 which is finding shorten path. How-
ever, Compatibility configuration enables the switch to be compatible with a variety of 
RFCs that deal with OSPF. Perform the following task to support many different features 
within the OSPF protocol. 

Use the following command to configure compatibility with RFC 1583. 

Supports compatibility with RFC 1583. 

Router 

Disables configured compatibility. 

 

OSPF configuration can be changed. Users are not required to alter all of these parame-
ters, but some interface parameters must be consistent across all routers in an attached 
network.
