Viewing Routing Protocol Reports

The following reports are available in the Extreme Networks ExtremeWireless system:

  • Forwarding Table — Displays the defined routes, whether static or OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), and their current status.
  • OSPF Neighbor — Displays the current neighbors for OSPF (routers that have interfaces to a common network).
  • OSPF Linkstate — Displays the Link State Advertisements (LSAs) received by the currently running OSPF process. The LSAs describe the local state of a router or network, including the state of the router‘s interfaces and adjacencies.
