Routing Commands

ProSafe Managed Switch
ASBR Status Reflects whether the ASBR mode is enabled or disabled. Enable implies that the router is
an autonomous system border router. The router automatically becomes an ASBR when
it is configured to redistribute routes learnt from other protocols. The possible values for
the ASBR status is enabled (if the router is configured to redistribute routes learned by
other protocols) or disabled (if the router is not configured for the same).
Stub Router When OSPF runs out of resources to store the entire link state database, or any other
state information, OSPF goes into stub router mode. As a stub router, OSPF
re-originates its own router LSAs, setting the cost of all non-stub interfaces to infinity. To
restore OSPF to normal operation, disable and re-enable OSPF.
Exit Overflow
Interval The number of seconds that, after entering overflow state, a router will attempt to leave
overflow state.
External LSDB
Overflow When the number of non-default external LSAs exceeds the configured limit, External
LSDB Limit, OSPF goes into LSDB overflow state. In this state, OSPF withdraws all of its
self-originated non-default external LSAs. After the Exit Overflow Interval, OSPF leaves
the overflow state, if the number of external LSAs has been reduced.
External LSA
Count The number of external (LS type 5) link-state advertisements in the link-state database.
External LSA
Checksum The sum of the LS checksums of external link-state advertisements contained in the
link-state database.
AS_OPAQUE
LSA Count Shows the number of AS Opaque LSAs in the link-state database.
AS_OPAQUE
LSA Checksum Shows the sum of the LS Checksums of AS Opaque LSAs contained in the link-state
database.
New LSAs
Originated The number of new link-state advertisements that have been originated.
LSAs Received The number of link-state advertisements received determined to be new instantiations.
LSA Count The total number of link state advertisements currently in the link state database.
Maximum
Number of
LSAs
The maximum number of LSAs that OSPF can store.
LSA High Water
Mark The maximum size of the link state database since the system started.
Retransmit List
Entries The total number of LSAs waiting to be acknowledged by all neighbors. An LSA may be
pending acknowledgment from more than one neighbor.
Maximum
Number of
Retransmit
Entries
The maximum number of LSAs that can be waiting for acknowledgment at any given
time.
Retransmit
Entries High
Water Mark
The highest number of LSAs that have been waiting for acknowledgment.
External LSDB
Limit The maximum number of non-default AS-external-LSAs entries that can be stored in the
link-state database.
Default Metric Default value for redistributed routes.
