TABLE 73
This field
Displays
Options
A 24-bit field that enables IPv6 OSPF routers to support the optional
capabilities. When set, the following bits indicate the following:
V6 - The device should be included in IPv6 routing calculations.
E - The device floods AS-external-LSAs as described in RFC 2740.
MC - The device forwards multicast packets as described in RFC 1586.
N - The device handles type 7 LSAs as described in RFC 1584.
R - The originator is an active router.
DC -The device handles demand circuits.
Metric
The cost of the route.
Destination Router ID
The ID of the router described in the LSA.
AS External LSA (Type 5) (Extn) Fields
Bits
The bit can be set to one of the following:
• E - If bit E is set, a Type 2 external metric. If bit E is zero, a Type 1
external metric.
• F - A forwarding address is included in the LSA.
• T - An external route tag is included in the LSA.
Metric
The cost of this route, which depends on bit E.
Prefix Options
An 8-bit field describing various capabilities associated with the prefix.
Referenced LS Type
If non-zero, an LSA with this LS type is associated with the LSA.
Prefix
The IPv6 prefix included in the LSA.
Link LSA (Type 8) (Link) Fields
Router Priority
The router priority of the interface attaching the originating router to the link.
Options
The set of options bits that the router would like set in the network LSA that
will be originated for the link.
Link Local Address
The originating router’s link-local interface address on the link.
Number of Prefix
The number of IPv6 address prefixes contained in the LSA.
