AuthType. The authentication type specified for an area. Additional authentication types may be assigned locally on a per-area basis.

ImportASExtern. The area's support for importing AS external link-state advertisements. Disable turns the area into a stub area.

SpfRuns. The number of times that the intra-area route table has been calculated using this area's link-state database. This is typically done using Dijkstra's algorithm.

BdrRtrCount. The total number of area border routers reachable within this area. This is initially zero and is calculated in each SPF Pass.

The sum can be used to determine if there has been a change in a router's link state database, and to compare the link-state database of two routers.

ImportSummary.The area's support for importing Summary advertisements into a stub area. This field should be used only if ospfImportASExtern is set to False.

ActiveIfCount.This variable displays the number of active interfaces configured in this area. An area cannot be deleted if this value is > 0.

Link State Database

AreaId. The 32-bit identifier of the Area from which the LSA was received.

Type. The type of the link-state advertisement. Each link-state type has a separate advertisement format.

LSID. The Link State ID is an LS Type Specific field containing either a router ID or an IP address; it identifies the piece of the routing domain that is being described by the advertisement.

RouterId. The 32-bit number that uniquely identifies the originating router in the autonomous system.

Sequence. The sequence number field is a signed 32-bit integer. It is used to detect old and duplicate link-state advertisements. The space of sequence numbers is linearly ordered. The larger the sequence number, the more recent the advertisement.

Age. The age of the link-state advertisement in seconds.

Checksum. The checksum of the complete contents of the advertisement, excepting the age field. The age field is excepted so that an advertisement's age can be incremented without updating the checksum. The checksum used is the same that is used for ISO connectionless datagrams; it is commonly referred to as the Fletcher checksum.

Area Range

AreaID. The area in which the Address Range is located.

Net. The IP Address of the net or subnet indicated by the range.

Mask. The subnet mask that pertains to the net or subnet.

Host

IpAddress. The IP Address of the Host.

TOS. The Type of Service of the route being configured.

Metric. The metric to be advertised to other areas.

[Contents | Edit]


Interface Metric

IpAddress. The IP address of this OSPF interface. On row creation, this can be derived from the instance.

AddressLessIf . For the purpose of easing the instancing of addressed and addressless interfaces, this variable takes the value 0 on interfaces with IP Addresses, and the corresponding value of ifIndex for interfaces having no IP Address.

TOS. The Type of Service metric being referenced. On row creation, this can be derived from the instance.

Metric. The metric of using this type of service on this interface. The default value of the TOS 0 Metric is 10^8 / ifSpeed.

The value FFFF is distinguished to mean 'no route via this TOS.'

Only TOS 0 is supported at this time

AreaId. A 32-bit integer uniquely identifying the area to which the interface connects. Area ID 0.0.0.0 is used for the OSPF backbone.

Type. The OSPF interface type.

By way of a default, this field may be intuited from the corresponding value of ifType. Broadcast LANs, such as Ethernet and IEEE 802.5, take the value 'broadcast;' X.25, Frame Relay, and similar technologies take the value 'nbmap;' links that are definitively point-to-point take the value 'pointToPoint'.

RtrPriority. The priority of this interface. Used in multi-access networks in the designated router election algorithm. The value 0 signifies that the router is not eligible to become the designated router on this particular network. In the event of a tie in this value, routers will use their router ID as a tie breaker.

TransitDelay. The estimated number of seconds it takes to transmit a link- state update packet over this interface.

RetransInterval. The number of seconds between link-state advertisement retransmissions for adjacencies belonging to this interface. This value is also used when retransmitting database description and link-state request packets.

HelloInterval. The length of time, in seconds, between the Hello packets that the router sends on the interface. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a common network.

RtrDeadInterval. The number of seconds that a router's Hello packets have not been seen before it's neighbors declare the router down. This should be some multiple of the Hello interval. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a common network.

Options. A bit mask corresponding to the neighbor's options field.

Bit 0, if set, indicates that the area accepts and operates on external information; if zero, it is a stub area.

Bit 1, if set, indicates that the system will operate on Type of Service metrics other than TOS 0. If zero, the neighbor will ignore all metrics except the TOS 0 metric.

Priority. The priority of this neighbor in the designated router election algorithm. The value 0 signifies that the neighbor is not eligible to become the designated router on this particular network.
