  2. CLI> add ospf neighbor

    Parameter

    Range of Values

    Enter the IPAddress of the OSPF unit you want to configure as a neighbor.

    <Priority>

    1 is the default. Enter 0 if you do not want the unit to act as the designated router. The higher the number the higher priority.

    CLI> add ospf neighbor 192.168.111.10 1

  3. Add the virtual interface. This is an optional step. Continue on to Save the Configuration if you do not want to add a virtual interface at this time, or Add Additional OSPF Areas.
