Variable definitions

The following table describes the Virtual If tab fields.

Variable Value
AreaId Specifies the unique ID of the area connected to the interface. An area ID of 0.0.0.0 indicates the OSPF backbone.
Neighbor Specifies the router ID of the virtual neighbor.
TransitDelay Specifies the estimated number of seconds required to transmit a link state update packet over the virtual interface. The transit delay is expressed as an integer between 1–3600. The default value is 1.
RetransInterval Specifies the number of seconds between link state advertisement retransmissions for adjacencies belonging to the virtual interface. The retransmit interval is also used to transmit database description and link state request packets. The retransmit interval is expressed as an integer between 1–3600. The default value is 5.
HelloInterval Specifies the interval, in seconds, between the Hello packets sent by the router on the virtual interface. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a common network. The hello interval is expressed as an integer between 1–65535. The default value is 10.
RtrDeadInterval Specifies the number of seconds that a neighbor router waits to receive transmitted hello packets from this interface before the neighbor declares it down. The retransmit dead interval is expressed as an integer between 1–2147483647. The retransmit dead interval must be a multiple of the hello interval and must be the same for all routers attached to a common network. The default value is 60.
AuthType Specifies the interface authentication type. The available authentication types are—none, simplePassword, and MD5.
AuthKey Specifies the interface authentication key used with the simplePassword authentication type.
PrimaryMd5Key Specifies the MD5 primary key. If no MD5 primary key exists, the value in this field is 0.
State Specifies the OSPF virtual interface state.
Events Specifies the number of times the virtual interface has changed state or the number of times an error has occurred.
Type Specifies whether the virtual interface is broadcast or passive.
