Viewing OSPF neighbor information
Two routers with interfaces to a common network are neighbors and appear on the Neighbors
tab for each neighboring router. The OSPF Hello protocol maintains and dynamically discovers
neighbor relationships. The exception is an NBMA network; you manually configure permanent
neighbors on each router eligible to become the DR.
