ATM Option
5.3.27 OSPF Metric cost
5.3.28 IP multicast active
An 8-character value that will appear in the authentication field of all OSPF packets sent
or received on this PVC. The Password allows the authentication procedure to generate
and/or verify the Authentication field in the OSPF header. If the Authentication Type (an
OSPF Area parameter) specifies a simple password, the Authentication Key is built from
the Password parameter as a 64-bit password. The NetPerformer inserts this key directly
into the OSPF header when creating routing protocol packets.
The value of the Password parameter must be the same as that configured on all other
routers having a connection with the network attached to this PVC. In other words, all
routers in the same area must have the same password (or no authentication at all). Since
the Authentication Key is configured separately for each PVC, there can be a separate
password for each network in the AS.
Values: Maximum 8-character ASCII string
Default: none

OSPF Metric cost atmpvcOspfMetricCost [atmpvc#] OspfMetric-
Cost
The cost of sending a packet on this PVC, expressed in the link state metric. The value of
this parameter is determined as:

The metric cost is advertised in the router links advertisement as the link cost for this
PVC.
Values: 1 - 65534
