Table 66 OSPF global statistics

Statistic

Description

 

 

 

Tx ls Updates

The sum total of all Link State Update packets transmitted on all OSPF areas and

 

interfaces.

 

 

 

Nbr change stats:

 

 

 

 

 

hello

The sum total of all Hello packets received from neighbors on all OSPF areas and

 

interfaces.

 

 

 

Start

The sum total number of neighbors in this state (that is, an indication that Hello

 

packets should now be sent to the neighbor at intervals of HelloInterval

 

seconds) across all OSPF areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

n2way

The sum total number of bidirectional communication establishment between this

 

router and other neighboring routers.

 

 

 

adjoint ok

The sum total number of decisions to be made (again) as to whether an adjacency

 

should be established/maintained with the neighbor across all OSPF areas and

 

interfaces.

 

 

 

negotiation done

The sum total number of neighbors in this state wherein the Master/slave relationship

 

has been negotiated, and sequence numbers have been exchanged, across all OSPF

 

areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

exchange done

The sum total number of neighbors in this state (that is, in an adjacency's final state)

 

having transmitted a full sequence of Database Description packets, across all OSPF

 

areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

bad requests

The sum total number of Link State Requests which have been received for a link state

 

advertisement not contained in the database across all interfaces and OSPF areas.

 

 

 

bad sequence

The sum total number of Database Description packets which have been received

 

that either:

 

Has an unexpected DD sequence number

 

Unexpectedly has the init bit set

 

Has an options field differing from the last Options field received in a Database

 

Description packet.

 

Any of these conditions indicate that some error has occurred during adjacency

 

establishment for all OSPF areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

loading done

The sum total number of link state updates received for all out-of-date portions of the

 

database across all OSPF areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

n1way

The sum total number of Hello packets received from neighbors, in which this router is

 

not mentioned across all OSPF interfaces and areas.

 

 

 

rst_ad

The sum total number of times the Neighbor adjacency has been reset across all

 

OPSF areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

down

The total number of Neighboring routers down (that is, in the initial state of a

 

neighbor conversation) across all OSPF areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

Intf Change Stats:

 

 

 

 

 

up

The sum total number of interfaces up in all OSPF areas.

 

 

 

down

The sum total number of interfaces down in all OSPF areas.

 

 

 

loop

The sum total of interfaces no longer connected to the attached network across all

 

OSPF areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

unloop

The sum total number of interfaces, connected to the attached network in all OSPF

 

areas.

 

 

 

wait timer

The sum total number of times the Wait Timer has been fired, indicating the end of

 

the waiting period that is required before electing a (Backup) Designated Router

 

across all OSPF areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

backup

The sum total number of Backup Designated Routers on the attached network for all

 

OSPF areas and interfaces.

 

 

 

nbr change

The sum total number of changes in the set of bidirectional neighbors associated with

 

any interface across all OSPF areas.
