Browse OSPF Neighbor Table
This table can be found in the
OSPF Monitoring
folder by clicking on the
Browse OSPF Neighbor Table
link. Routers that are
connected to the same area or segment become neighbors in that area. Neighbors are elected via the Hello protocol. IP multicast
is used to send out Hello packets to other routers on the segment. Routers become neighbors when they see themselves listed in a
Hello packet sent by another router on the same segment. In this way, two-way communication is guaranteed to be possible
between any two-neighbor routers. This table displays OSPF neighbors of the Switch.
