Enhancement summary

Neither core_interfaces: nor l3_edge: support configuring ospf. There exists the option to configure the interface portion via structured_config:

      structured_config:
        ospf_network_point_to_point: true
        ospf_area: 0.0.0.1

This, however, still requires configuring the routing process separately, which can be done under network_services:

default:
  - name: "default"
    vrfs:
       - name: "default"       
          ospf:
            enabled: true

            process_id: 123
            nodes:
              - SW1
              - SW2
              - SW3
              - SW4

It would be valuable to have the option to configure the ospf options on the link and have eos_designs add the link to the appropriate router_ospf instance.

Use case example

There are numerous cases where the underlay routing is not uniform. Customers using non-fully meshed iBGP frequently use OSPF to provide routing to peering loopbacks. OSPF is also frequently used for multi-path reachability to specialized networks, such as OOB management networks.

Describe the solution you would like

Provide the existing ospf interface keys to p2p_links, (with the addition of the router_ospf process id) and in addition to configuring the interface, add the router_ospf process and add the interface to the non-passive interface list if necessary.

Describe alternatives you have considered

This can be achieved by configuration in multiple places. Configuration of structured config on the p2p_links, along with configuring the router_ospf instance under network_services works, but is prone to errors.
