show ip ospf stats

Use statistics to help you monitor Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) performance.

Syntax

Command Parameters

vrf WORD<1-16>

None

Command Mode

User EXEC

Command Output

The show ip ospf stats command displays the following information:

Output field

Description

NumBufAlloc

Indicates the number of buffers allocated for OSPF.

NumBufFree

Indicates the number of buffers that are freed by the OSPF.

NumBufAllocFail

Indicates the number of times that OSPF failed to allocate buffers.

NumBufFreeFail

Indicates the number of times that OSPF failed to free buffers.

NumTxPkt

Indicates the number of packets transmitted by OSPF.

NumRxPkt

Indicates the number of packets received by OSPF.

NumTxDropPkt

Indicates the number of packets dropped before transmission by OSPF.

NumRxDropPkt

Indicates the number of packets dropped before reception by OSPF.

NumRxBadPkt

Indicates the number of packets received by OSPF that are bad.

NumSpfRun

Indicates the total number of SPF calculations performed by OSPF, which also includes the number of partial route table calculation for incremental updates.

LastSpfRun

Indicates the time (SysUpTime) since the last SPF calculated by OSPF.

LsdbTblSize

Indicates the number of entries in the link state database table.

NumAllocBdDDP

Indicates the number of times buffer descriptors were allocated for OSPF database description packets.

NumFreeBdDDP

Indicates the number of times buffer descriptors were freed after use as OSPF database description packets.

NumBadLsReq

Indicates the number of bad LSDB requests.

NumSeqMismatch

Indicates the number of mismatches for sequence numbers.

NumOspfRoutes

The count of OSPF routes.

NumOspfAreas

The count of all OSPF areas.

NumOspfAdjacencies

The count of adjacencies.

NumOspfNbrs

The count of OSPF neighbors.

NumEnabledOspfAreas

The count of OSPF areas with at least one enabled OSPF interface. This number counts against the scaling maximum when you add a new area.

The following example displays the OSPF performance statistics.
