TABLE 76

This field

Displays

Instance ID

An identifier for an instance of OSPFv3.

Router ID

The IPv4 address of the device. By default, the router ID is the IPv4 address configured on
the lowest numbered loopback interface. If the device does not have a loopback interface,
the default router ID is the lowest numbered IPv4 address configured on the device.

Area ID

The IPv4 address or numerical value of the area in which the interface belongs.

Cost

The overhead required to send a packet through the interface.

default

Shows whether or not the default passive state is set.

State

The state of the interface. Possible states include the following:

• DR - The interface is functioning as the Designated Router for OSPFv3.
• BDR - The interface is functioning as the Backup Designated Router for OSPFv3.
• Loopback - The interface is functioning as a loopback interface.
• P2P - The interface is functioning as a point-to-point interface.
• Passive - The interface is up but it does not take part in forming an adjacency.
• Waiting - The interface is trying to determine the identity of the BDR for the network.
• None - The interface does not take part in the OSPF interface state machine.
• Down - The interface is unusable. No protocol traffic can be sent or received on such a

interface.

• DR other - The interface is a broadcast or NBMA network on which another router is

selected to be the DR.

• Active - The interface sends or receives all the OSPFv3 control packets, and forms the

adjacency.

Transmit delay

The amount of time, in seconds, it takes to transmit Link State Updates packets on the
interface.

Priority

The priority used when selecting the DR and the BDR. If the priority is 0, the interface does
not participate in the DR and BDR election.

Timer intervals

The interval, in seconds, of the hello-interval, dead-interval, and retransmit-interval timers.

DR

The router ID (IPv4 address) of the DR.

BDR

The router ID (IPv4 address) of the BDR.

Number of I/F
scoped LSAs

The number of interface LSAs scoped for a specified area, AS, or link.

DR Election

The number of times the DR election occurred.

Delayed LSA Ack

The number of the times the interface sent a delayed LSA acknowledgement.

Neighbor Count

The number of neighbors to which the interface is connected.
