• Waiting - The router is trying to determine the identity of the (Backup) Designated Router by
monitoring received Hello Packets. The router is not allowed to elect a Backup Designated
Router or a Designated Router until it transitions out of Waiting state. This prevents
unnecessary changes of (Backup) Designated Router.
• Point-to-Point - The interface is operational, and is connected either to the virtual link. On
entering this state the router attempts to form an adjacency with the neighboring router. Hello
Packets are sent to the neighbor every HelloInterval seconds.
• Designated Router - This router is itself the Designated Router on the attached network.
Adjacencies are established to all other routers attached to the network. The router must also
originate a network-LSA for the network node. The network- LSA will contain links to all
routers (including the Designated Router itself) attached to the network.
• Backup Designated Router - This router is itself the Backup Designated Router on the
attached network. It will be promoted to Designated Router if the present Designated Router
fails. The router establishes adjacencies to all other routers attached to the network. The
Backup Designated Router performs slightly different functions during the Flooding
Procedure, as compared to the Designated Router.
• Other Designated Router - The interface is connected to a broadcast or NBMA network on
which other routers have been selected to be the Designated Router and Backup Designated
Router either. The router attempts to form adjacencies to both the Designated Router and the
Backup Designated Router.
Neighbor State - The state of the Virtual Neighbor Relationship.
Metric - The metric value used by the Virtual Link.
