Description of ospf.conf

The ospf.conf file contains configuration parameters that you edit to customize
discovery. The parameters are a subset of attributes that are defined for the topology manager (OSPF-Adapter-Manager) that will run in the
environment.
Parameters in the ospf.conf file describes the parameters in the ospf.conf file. The parameters and their values are case-sensitive.

Parameter
Value
Description
Config
Regular expression: ospf
Identifies this
Domain Manager
configuration as
.
Do not change this parameter.
TrapPort
0, 162, 2049 to 65534
Default: 0
Enables the
built-in trap receiver, and specifies the port used by the trap receiver to receive traps.
  • TrapPort = 0 disables the built-in trap receiver.
  • TrapPort = 162 or a value in the range 2049-to-65534 (inclusive) enables the built-in trap receiver and sets the trap port to the value specified for the parameter.
TraceTraps
TRUE,FALSE
Default: FALSE
Determines whether trap receiver tracing for
is enabled or disabled.
  • A value of TRUE indicates that trap receiver tracing is enabled.
  • A value of FALSE indicates that trap receiver tracing is disabled.
SyslogName
Regular expression
Default: empty string
Enables the
built-in syslog adapter, and specifies the name of the local syslog file to be tailed by the syslog adapter.
  • SyslogName = "" (empty string) disables the built-in syslog adapter.
  • SyslogName = <full path and name of syslog file> (for example, /var/adm/messages) enables the built-in syslog adapter and sets the name of the local syslog file to be tailed to the value specified for the parameter.
TraceSyslog
TRUE,FALSE
Default: FALSE
Determines whether syslog adapter tracing for
is enabled or disabled.
  • A value of TRUE indicates that syslog adapter tracing is enabled.
  • A value of FALSE indicates that syslog adapter tracing is disabled.
AdminDownFlag
TRUE,FALSE
Default: FALSE
Controls whether
generates alarms on the OSPF neighbor relationships of OSPF interfaces that are administratively down (manually disabled).
  • A value of TRUE indicates that alarms are not generated on the OSPF neighbor relationships.
  • A value of FALSE indicates that alarms are generated on the OSPF neighbor relationships.
IsDisplayNameCustom
TRUE,FALSE
Default: FALSE
Controls whether
accepts topology objects from the
(the Adapter).
  • A value of TRUE indicates that topology objects from the Adapter are accepted.
  • A value of FALSE indicates that topology objects from the Adapter are not accepted.
When the Adapter is present, set the IsDisplayNameCustom parameter to TRUE. The Adapter is described in the
.
EnableAlertsOnDynamicOSPFLinks
TRUE,FALSE
Default: TRUE
Introduced as of
9.2.2, for OSPFNeighborRelationship, controls whether Neighbor Down alarms are notified for both IPv4 and IPv6.
If an SNMP error occurs and the value is:
  • TRUE — The Neighbor state is set as DOWN.
  • FALSE— The Neighbor state is set as UNKNOWN.
EnableOSPFPassiveInterfaceDiscovery
TRUE,FALSE
Default: TRUE
Determines the discovery of OSPF passive interfaces by Network Protocol Manager for OSPF.
  • TRUE — Discovers the OSPF Passive Interfaces using CLI mechanism.
  • FALSE— Does not discover the OSPF passive interfaces.
EnableIPv6Discovery
TRUE,FALSE
Default: TRUE
Determines the discovery of IPv6 topology by Network Protocol Manager for OSPF.
  • TRUE — Enables discovery of IPv6 topology.
  • FALSE— Disables discovery of IPv6 topology.
    Applicable only for BGP, OSPF and IS-IS.
Type
AM
Indicates the type of the
Domain Manager
that is added as a topology source.
DomainName
INCHARGE-AM
This is the default domain name. You can use the right click option to delete it from the Domain Manager Administration Console, and then update the configuration file by commenting out the DomainName parameter.
This is the name of the IP
Domain Manager
that is added as a topology source.
DisplayName
INCHARGE-AM
This is the display name of the IP
Domain Manager
that is added as a topology source.
