Configuring IP Routing
Loopback Interface
OSPF uses the highest IP address configured on the interfaces as its router ID. If this interface is down
or removed, the OSPF process must recalculate a new router ID and resend all its routing information
out of its interfaces. If a loopback interface is configured with an IP address, OSPF uses this IP address
as its router ID, even if other interfaces have higher IP addresses. Because loopback interfaces never fail,
this provides greater stability. OSPF automatically prefers a loopback interface over other interfaces, and
it chooses the highest IP address among all loopback interfaces.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure a loopback interface:
Command
Step 1
Router# configure terminal
Step 2
Router(config)# interface loopback
0
Step 3
Router(config)# ip address address
mask
Step 4
Router(config)# end
Step 5
Router# show ip interface
Step 6
Router# copy running-config
startup-config
Use the no interface loopback 0 global configuration command to disable the loopback interface.
Monitoring OSPF
You can display specific statistics such as the contents of IP routing tables, caches, and databases.
