Parameter
Description
OSPF State
Current state of OSPF.
Router ID
Router ID for OSPF.
OSPF Version
Current version of OSPF. The P580/P882 with Integrated Routing supports OSPFv2.
External LSA Count
Number of external (LS type 5) link state advertisements (LSAs) in the link-state database.
Originate LSA Count
Number of LSAs originated by this router.
Receive New LSA Count
Number of new LSAs received by this router.
LSA Checksum Sum
(global OSPF system)
32-bit unsigned sum of the LS checksums of the external link-state advertisements contained in the link-state database. This sum can be used to determine if there has been a change in a router's link state database, and to compare the link-state database of two routers.
Area ID
Area ID of the area in question. It has the function of defining a summarization point for Link State Advertisements.
SPF Runs
Number of times that the intra-area route table has been calculated using this area's link-state database.
Border Rtrs
Total number of area border routers reachable within this area. This is initially zero, and is calculated in each SPF Pass.
AS Border Rtrs
Total number of Autonomous System border routers reachable within this area. This is initially zero, and is calculated in each SPF Pass.
LSAs
Total number of link-state advertisements in this area's link-state database, excluding AS External LSAs.
LSA Chksum Sum (per area, not globally)
32-bit unsigned sum of the LS checksums of the external link-state advertisements contained in the link-state database. This sum can be used to determine if there has been a change in a router's link state database, and to compare the link-state database of two routers.
