4. Use Router Priority to enter the OSPFv3 priority for the selected interface. The priority of
an interface is specified as an integer from 0 to 255. The default is 1, which is the highest
router priority. A value of '0' indicates that the router is not eligible to become the designated
router on this network.
5. Use Retransmit Interval to enter the OSPFv3 retransmit interval for the specified interface.
This is the number of seconds between link-state advertisements for adjacencies belonging
to this router interface. This value is also used when retransmitting database descriptions
and link-state request packets. Valid values range from 0 to 3600 seconds (1 hour). The
default is 5 seconds.
6. Use Hello Interval to enter the OSPFv3 hello interval for the specified interface in seconds.
This parameter must be the same for all routers attached to a network. Valid values range
from 1 to 65,535. The default is 10 seconds.
7. Use Dead Interval to enter the OSPFv3 dead interval for the specified interface in seconds.
This specifies how long a router will wait to see a neighbor router's Hello packets before
declaring that the router is down. This parameter must be the same for all routers attached
to a network. This value should a multiple of the Hello Interval (e.g. 4). Valid values range
from 1 to 65535. The default is 40.
8. Use Iftransit Delay Interval to enter the OSPFv3 Transit Delay for the specified interface.
This specifies the estimated number of seconds it takes to transmit a link state update
packet over the selected interface. Valid values range from 1 to 3600 seconds (1 hour). The
default value is 1 second.
9. Use MTU Ignore to disable OSPFv3 MTU mismatch detection on receiving packets. Default
value is Disable.
10. Use Passive Mode to make an interface passive to prevent OSPF from forming an
adjacency on an interface. OSPF advertises networks attached to passive interfaces as stub
networks. Interfaces are not passive by default.
11. Use Interface Type to set the interface type to broadcast mode or point to point mode. The
default interface type is broadcast.
12. Use Metric Cost to enter the value on this interface for the cost TOS (type of service). The
range for the metric cost is between 1 and 65,535. Metric Cost is only configurable if
OSPFv3 is initialized on the interface.
