Managing router hosts

You can specify which hosts are directly attached to the router, and the metrics and types of service that should be advertised for them.

To manage router hosts:


From the Device Manager menu bar, choose IP Routing > OSPF > Hosts.


The OSPF dialog box opens with the Hosts tab displayed.

The table below describes the Hosts tab fields.
