Variable definitions

The following table defines parameters for the show ip ospf ifstats command.


Variable	Value
`<1-4059>`	Specifies the VLAN ID in the range of 1 to 4059. By default, VLAN IDs 1 to 4059 are configurable and the system reserves VLAN IDs 4060 to 4094 for internal use. On switches that support the vrf-scaling and spbm-config-mode boot configuration flags, if you enable these flags, the system also reserves VLAN IDs 3500 to 3998. VLAN ID 1 is the default VLAN and you cannot create or delete VLAN ID 1.

mismatch	Specifies the number of times the area ID is not matched.
vrf WORD<1-16>	Specifies a VRF by name.
vrfids WORD<0-512>	Specifies a range of VRF IDs.
