HP (Hewlett-Packard) 5300XL Switch User Manual


 
IP Routing Features
Configuring OSPF
Not e Do not enable redistribution until you have configured the redistribution
filters. Otherwise, the network might get overloaded with routes that you did
not intend to redistribute.
Example: To configure the Series 5300XL Switch acting as an ASBR to filter
out redistribution of static or connected routes on network 10.0.0.0, enter the
following commands:
HPswitchASBR(config)# router ospf
HPswitch(ospf)# restrict 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0
HPswitch(ospf)# write memory
Not e Redistribution is permitted for all routes by default.
Syntax: restrict <ip-addr> <ip-mask> | <ip-addr/<prefix length>
This command prevents any routes with a destination address that is included
in the range specified by the address/mask pair from being redistributed by
OSPF.
Modify Default Metric for Redistribution
The default metric is a global parameter that specifies the cost applied to all
OSPF routes by default. The default value is 10. You can assign a cost from 1
16,777,215.
Example: To assign a default metric of 4 to all routes imported into OSPF,
enter the following commands:
HPswitch(config)# router ospf
HPswitch(ospf)# default-metric 4
Syntax: default-metric <value>
The <value> can be from 1 16,777,215. The default is 10.
