ip ospf interface statistics

547

receiveLSU

Number of link state update packets that were received

transmitDD

Number of database description packets that were transmitted

Interpretation:

■

A non-zero value is OK.

Database description packets are sent when forming 

adjacencies with valid neighbors. A large number in a 

network whose configuration has not changed could 

indicate that adjacencies are being torn down and 

re-established.

This statistic is incremented under the following circumstances:

■

When an OSPF database descriptor packet is transmitted.

transmitError

Number of general transmit errors

Interpretation:

■

A non-zero value indicates that an OSPF packet could not be 

sent either out a particular interface, or to a particular 

destination. This could prevent OSPF from running properly 

within the autonomous system and lead to routing 

problems.

This statistic is incremented under the following circumstances:

■

When an OSPF Hello, LSU, or LSAck is being sent as a 

multicast packet on a non-broadcast multiple access 

network.

transmitHello

Number of Hello packets that were transmitted

transmitLsAck

Number of LSA acknowledgments that were transmitted

transmitLSR

Number of LSA request packets that were transmitted

transmitLSU
