Working with the OSPF routing table
The OSPF routing table includes routes built from the router’s link-state database as well as
those added by external routing protocols, such as RIP. Add routes statically (for example, to
direct traffic destined for a remote site through one of several possible border routers). For
details about adding static routes, see the Network Configuration Guide for your unit.
Only the main VRouter supports OSPF.
To display the IP routing table with added OSPF information, invoke the terminal server
(System > Sys Diag > Term Serv) and enter the IProute Show command with the
-l
option:
ascend% iproute show -l
When you include the
-l
option, three columns of OSPF-specific fields appear at the routing
table:
... Cost T Tag
... 1 0 0xc0000000
... 9 1 0xc8000000
OSPF LsdbOverflow
Sends the OSPF LsdbOverflow trap when the number of LSAs in the
router’s link-state database has exceeded
ospfExtLsdbLimit
.
OSPF MaxAgeLsa
Sends the OSPF MaxAgeLsa trap when the age of one of the LSAs in the
router’s link-state database reached the MaxAge value.
OSPF Nbr StateChange
Sends the OSPF Nbr StateChange trap when there has been a change in
the state of a nonvirtual OSPF neighbor.
OSPF OriginateLsa
Indicates the number of new Link-State Advertisements (LSAs) that have
been originated.
OSPF TxRetrans
Sends the OSPF TxRetransmit trap when the MAX unit retransmits an
OSPF packet on a nonvirtual interface.
OSPF VirtIf AuthFailure
Sends the OSPF VirtIf AuthFailure trap when the MAX unit receives a
packet on a virtual interface from a router whose authentication key or
authentication type conflicts with the MAX unit’s authentication key or
authentication type.
OSPF VirtIf ConfigError
Sends the OSPF VirtIf ConfigError trap when the MAX unit receives a
packet on a virtual interface from a router whose configuration parameters
conflict with the MAX unit’s configuration parameters.
OSPF VirtIf StateChange
Sends the OSPF VirtIf StateChange trap when there has been a change in
the state of an OSPF virtual interface.
OSPF VirtIf RxBadPacket
Sends the OSPF VirtIf RxBadPacket trap when the MAX unit receives, on
a virtual interface, an OSPF packet that cannot be parsed.
OSPF VirtIf TxRetransmit
Sends the OSPF VirtIf TxRetransmit trap when the MAX unit retransmits
an OSPF packet on a virtual interface.
OSPF VirtNbr StateChnge
Sends the OSPF VirtNbr StateChnge trap when there has been a change in
the state of an OSPF virtual neighbor.
