When setting ospf interface “all” as passive is it normal that state is “Down”
1 P interface=all cost=10 priority=1 authentication=none authentication-key=“”
authentication-key-id=1 network-type=broadcast instance-id=0
retransmit-interval=5s transmit-delay=1s hello-interval=10s
dead-interval=40s use-bfd=no
You should do passive interfaces if you do not want to enable OSPF on them.
I wish there was a simple way to mark all instances as passive except the ones we add manually.
Its easy enough with winbox software as a GUI.
Are you saying the interfaces are physically up but show as down in OSPF passive?
Not as easy when you have a few hundred vlans. Not bad to script but would be nice to have a simple checkbox to automatically have all interfaces as passive and then add the ones you want.
/routing ospf interfaces add interface=all area=backbone passive=yes
Well, not exactly because this is not OSPF-v3… it is (sorry for the mistake):
/routing ospf interface add interface=all passive=yes
I completely missed that. Thanks
