11.4.3.7 Viewing Neighbor Table Information
This panel displays the OSPF neighbor table list. When a particular neighbor ID is specified, detailed
information about a neighbor is given. The information below will only be displayed if OSPF is enabled.
Selection Criteria
Slot/Port - Selects the interface for which data is to be displayed or configured. Slot 0 is the base
unit.
Non-Configurable Data
Router ID - A 32 bit integer in dotted decimal format representing the neighbor interface.
IP Address - The IP address of the neighboring router's interface to the attached network. It is used
as the destination IP address when protocol packets are sent as unicasts along this adjacency. Also
used in router-LSAs as the Link ID for the attached network if the neighboring router is selected to be
designated router. The Neighbor IP address is learned when Hello packets are received from the
neighbor. For virtual links, the Neighbor IP address is learned during the routing table build process.
Neighbor Interface Index - A Slot/Port identifying the neighbor interface index.
