LABEL DESCRIPTION

Name Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) for

identification purposes.

Area ID Enter a 32-bit ID (that uses the format of an IP address in dotted decimal

notation) that uniquely identifies an area.

A value of 0.0.0.0 indicates that this is a backbone (also known as Area 0).

You can create only one backbone area on the Switch.

Authenticati

Select an authentication method (Simple or MD5) to activate

authentication. Select None (default) to disable authentication.

Usually interface(s) and virtual interface(s) should use the same

authentication method as the associated area. If interface(s) and virtual

interface(s) use different authentication methods than the associated area,

the authentication methods are based on the interface(s) and virtual

interface(s) settings.

If you enter 0.0.0.0 in the Area ID field, the settings in the Stub Area

fields are ignored.

set a route cost, no default route is added.
