Table 67 OSPF global statistics
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.
n1way The sum total number of Hello packets received from neighbors, in which this router is not
mentioned across all OSPF interfaces and areas.
rst_ad The sum total number of times the Neighbor adjacency has been reset across all OPSF
areas and interfaces.
down The total number of Neighboring routers down (that is, in the initial state of a neighbor
conversation) across all OSPF areas and interfaces.
Intf Change Stats:
up The sum total number of interfaces up in all OSPF areas.
down The sum total number of interfaces down in all OSPF areas.
loop The sum total of interfaces no longer connected to the attached network across all OSPF
areas and interfaces.
