Configuring OSPF Routing
Administering OSPF
To display the OSPF interfaces, enter the Show OSPF Interfaces command. For example:
ascend% show ospf interfaces
Area IP Address Type State Cost Pri DR BDR
---------------------------------------------------------------------
0.0.0.0 10.5.32.154 Bcast BackupDR 1 5 10.5.2.155 10.5.2.154
0.0.0.0 10.5.32.154 PtoP 2-Way 10 5 None None
0.0.0.0 10.5.32.154 PtoP 2-Way 10 5 None None
Displaying the OSPF link-state database
To display the router’s link-state database, enter the Show OSPF LSDB command. For
example:
ascend% show ospf lsdb
Note: You can expand each entry in the link-state database to display additional information
about a particular LSA. (For further information, see “Displaying OSPF link-state
advertisements” on page 9-21.)

Field Description
Area Area ID (0.0.0.0 is the backbone).
IP Address Address assigned to the interface. In the MultiVoice Gateway, the IP
address is always the address assigned to the Ethernet interface. To
identify WAN links, use the Type and Cost fields.
Type Can be broadcast or point-to-point. WAN links are point-to-point.
State How far along the router is in the process of electing a DR or BDR. The
state can be 1-way (indicating that the election process has begun),
2-way (indicating that the router has received notification), BackupDR,
or DR.
Cost Metric assigned to the link. The default cost for Ethernet is 1.
Pri Designated router election priority assigned to the MultiVoice Gateway.
DR The designated router.
BDR The backup designated router.
