Naming
convention for OSPF objects
To name a discovered OSPF object, uses the appropriate naming format in Naming formats for discovered OSPF
objects to assign the object a unique
name. It then populates the object’s Name and DisplayName attributes
with that name.
Class | Naming format |
|---|---|
1**This object type is not imported by
the Global Manager . | |
OSPFArea | Name:OSPF-AREA-<32-bit area identifier>[/<tag value>] An
OSPF area that has a tag value in its name indicates that the area
consists of OSPF interfaces that are layered over IP addresses that
are tagged with that tag value. For example:OSPF-AREA-0.0.0.0 |
DisplayName:<same as
Name> | |
OSPFAreaConfiguration | Name:OSPF-CFG-<host device name>/<32-bit area identifier> For example:OSPF-CFG-dev-Vpls0/0.0.0.0 |
DisplayName:<same as Name> | |

device name> For example:OSPF-SVC-dev-Vpls0 |
DisplayName:OSPF-SVC-<host

OSPFNetwork | An OSPF network can exist for four network types:
The network type determines the naming format to be
used for the OSPFNetwork object. |
Broadcast, NBMA, and point-to-multipoint network types | |

address>-<netmask value> For example:OSPF-NET-10.9.7.10-255.255.255.255 | |

In an overlapping
IP environment, observes the following rule to ensure that it creates the
correct OSPF neighbor relationships in its modeled topology:
For an OSPF endpoint layered over a tagged
IP that has a tag value of xxx, will create an OSPF neighbor relationship to a neighboring
OSPF endpoint
if and only if
that endpoint is also layered
over a tagged IP that has a tag value of xxx.The following
OSPF neighbor relationship confirms
the observance of this rule. The tag value in the name of the OSPF
neighbor relationship is highlighted in bold.
