LABEL	DESCRIPTION
OSPF Router ID	Select the 32-bit ID the ZyWALL uses in the OSPF AS.
	Default - the first available interface IP address is the ZyWALL’s ID.
	User Defined - enter the ID (in IP address format) in the field that appears when
	you select User Define.
Redistribute
Active RIP	Select this to advertise routes that were learned from RIP. The ZyWALL advertises
	routes learned from RIP to Normal and NSSA areas but not to Stub areas.
Type	Select how OSPF calculates the cost associated with routing information from RIP.
	Choices are: Type 1 and Type 2.
	Type 1 - cost = OSPF AS cost + external cost (Metric)
	Type 2 - cost = external cost (Metric); the OSPF AS cost is ignored.
Metric	Type the external cost for routes provided by RIP. The metric represents the “cost” of
	transmission for routing purposes. The way this is used depends on the Type field.
	This value is usually the average cost in the OSPF AS, and it can be between 1 and
	16777214.
Active Static Route	Select this to advertise routes that were learned from static routes. The ZyWALL
	advertises routes learned from static routes to all types of areas.
Type	Select how OSPF calculates the cost associated with routing information from static
	routes. Choices are: Type 1 and Type 2.
	Type 1 - cost = OSPF AS cost + external cost (Metric)
	Type 2 - cost = external cost (Metric); the OSPF AS cost is ignored.
Metric	Type the external cost for routes provided by static routes. The metric represents the
	“cost” of transmission for routing purposes. The way this is used depends on the
	Type field. This value is usually the average cost in the OSPF AS, and it can be
	between 1 and 16777214.
Area	This section displays information about OSPF areas in the ZyWALL.
