Statistic Description
Tx Database
The sum total of all Database Description packets transmitted on all OSPF areas and
interfaces.
Rx ls Requests
The sum total of all Link State Request packets received on all OSPF areas and interfaces.
Tx ls Requests
The sum total of all Link State Request packets transmitted on all OSPF areas and
interfaces.
Rx ls Acks
The sum total of all Link State Acknowledgement packets received on all OSPF areas and
interfaces.
Tx ls Acks
The sum total of all Link State Acknowledgement packets transmitted on all OSPF areas
and interfaces.
Rx ls Updates
The sum total of all Link State Update packets received on all OSPF areas and interfaces.
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The sum total number of link state updates received for all out-of-date portions of the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.
