Netsh commands for Routing

You can use the Netsh commands for Routing to administer routing servers from the command line, rather than through the Routing and Remote Access console. Administering servers from the command line is most useful in the following situations:

You can administer routing servers more quickly from the command line than you can using a console. The ability is especially important if you are using a slow-speed network link, for example, a connection over a wide area network (WAN).
You can administer routing servers more consistently by incorporating these commands into a script that you can run on many servers.

You can use the following commands at the command prompt for the appropriate Netsh context to administer routing servers. To run these Netsh commands on a remote Windows 2000 Server, you must first use Remote Desktop Connection to connect to a Windows 2000 Server that is running Terminal server. There might be functional differences between Netsh context commands on Windows 2000 and the Windows Server 2003 family.

For more information on Netsh, see Netsh overview and Enter a netsh context.

uninstall

Deletes OSPF.

Parameters

none

set area

Changes parameters for the specified area.

Syntax

set area [areaid=]AreaID [[auth=]{none | password}] [[stubarea=]{yes | no}] [[metric=]StubMetric] [[sumadv=]{yes | no}]

Parameters

[ areaid=] AreaID
Required. Specifies, by IP address, the OSPF area for which you want to change parameters.

[ auth=]{ none| password}
Specifies whether passwords are required for the area.

By default, passwords are required and the password is 12345678. Passwords are transmitted in plaintext format, so this option is for identification, not security.

[ stubarea=]{ yes| no}
Specifies whether this area is configured as a stub area, which is an OSPF area that does not enumerate external routes. Routes from outside the OSPF Autonomous System (AS) are not flooded into or through stub areas. Routing to AS external destinations in these areas is based only on a summary default route. This reduces the overhead for the routers in the stub area.

[ metric=] StubMetric

[ dead=] DeadInterval
Specifies, in seconds, how long a router can fail to respond before a neighboring router should consider this router is malfunctioning. This setting should be an integral multiple of the hello interval (commonly 4). This value must be the same for all OSPF router interfaces that are connected to the same network segment.

[ password=] Password
Specifies the password for this interface, if passwords are required for the area. All interfaces that are in the same area and on the same network must use the same password. By default, passwords are required and the password is 12345678.

[ prio=] Priority
Specifies the interface priority.

[ transdelay=] TransitDelay
Specifies the estimated number of seconds it takes to transmit a link state update packet over this interface. If you do not specify this parameter, the estimated delay is set to 1 second.

[ retrans=] ReTransmitInterval
Specifies the number of seconds between link state advertisement retransmissions for adjacencies belonging to this interface. A typical value for a local area network is 5 seconds.

[ hello=] HelloInterval
Specifies, in seconds, the interval between transmissions of hello packets by the router on the interface. This setting must be the same for all routers that are connected to the same network. A typical value for a local area network is 10 seconds.
