Reconfiguring the router ID (optional)

If you want to change the router ID setting, do the following:

  1. Go to the global config context; the CLI prompt appears similar to the following:

    HP Switch(config)#_

  2. If OSPF is not enabled, go to Step 3; if OSPF is enabled, use no router ospf to disable OSPF operation.

  3. Use ip router-id ip-addr to specify a new router ID. (This IP address must be unique in the routing switch configuration.)

  4. If you disabled OSPF operation in Step 2, use router ospf to re-enable OSPF operation.

For more information on the router ID, see IP global parameters for routing switches and Changing the router ID.

Changing the router ID

Syntax:

ip router-id ip-addr

The ip-addr can be any valid, unique IP address.

HP Switch(config)# ip router-id 209.157.22.26

[NOTE: ]

NOTE: You can specify an IP address used for an interface on the HP routing switch, but do not specify an IP address in use by another device.
