Area Number (0-2) Defines the area index used by the interface.
Enabled? Enables or disables the OSPF interface.
Router Priority (0-255) Displays the assigned priority value to the OSPF interfaces.

Dead Interval (1-65535 sec) Displays the health parameters of a hello packet, which is set for an interval of seconds
before declaring a silent router to be down.
