Release Information

Command introduced before Junos OS Release 7.4.

Command introduced in Junos OS Release 9.0 for EX Series switches.

instance all option introduced in Junos OS Release 9.1.

instance all option introduced in Junos OS Release 9.1 for EX Series switches.

area, interface, and realm options introduced in Junos OS Release 9.2.

area and interface options introduced in Junos OS Release 9.2 for EX Series switches.

Command introduced in Junos OS Release 11.3 for the QFX Series.

Description

Display information about OSPF neighbors.

CPU utilization might increase while the device learns its OSPF neighbors. We recommend that you use the show (ospf | ospf3) neighbor command after the device learns and establishes OSPF neighbor adjacencies. Depending on the size of your network, this might take several minutes. If you receive a “timeout communicating with routing daemon” error when using the show (ospf | ospf3) neighbor command, wait several minutes before attempting to use the command again. This is not a critical system error, but you might experience a delay in using the CLI.

Options

none

—

Display standard information about all OSPF neighbors for all routing instances.

brief | detail | extensive

—

(Optional) Display the specified level of output.

area area-id

—

(Optional) Display information about the OSPF neighbors for the specified area.

instance (all | instance-name)

—

(Optional) Display all OSPF interfaces for all routing instances or under the named routing instance.

interface interface-name

—

(Optional) Display information about OSPF neighbors for the specified logical interface.

logical-system (all | logical-system-name)

—

(Optional) Perform this operation on all logical systems or on a particular logical system.

neighbor

—

(Optional) Display information about the specified OSPF neighbor.

realm (ipv4-multicast | ipv4-unicast | ipv6-multicast)

—

(OSPFv3 only) (Optional) Display information about the OSPF neighbors for the specified OSPFv3 realm, or address family. Use the realm option to specify an address family for OSPFv3 other than IPv6 unicast, which is the default.

Output Fields

Table 1 lists the output fields for the show (ospf | ospf3) neighbor command. Output fields are listed in the approximate order in which they appear.

Table 1: show (ospf | ospf3) neighbor Output Fields

Field Name	Field Description	Level of Output
Address	Address of the neighbor.	All levels
Interface	Interface through which the neighbor is reachable.	All levels
State	State of the neighbor: Attempt—Valid only for neighbors attached to nonbroadcast networks. It indicates that no recent information has been received from the neighbor, but that a more concerted effort must be made to contact the neighbor. Down—Initial state of a neighbor conversation. It indicates that no recent information has been received from the neighbor. Hello packets might continue to be sent to neighbors in the Down state, although at a reduced frequency. Exchange—Routing device is describing its entire link-state database by sending database description packets to the neighbor. Each packet has a sequence number and is explicitly acknowledged. ExStart—First step in creating an adjacency between the two neighboring routing devices. The goal of this step is to determine which routing device is the master, and to determine the initial sequence number. Full—Neighboring routing devices are fully adjacent. These adjacencies appear in router link and network link advertisements. Init—A hello packet has recently been sent by the neighbor. However, bidirectional communication has not yet been established with the neighbor. This state might occur, for example, because the routing device itself did not appear in the neighbor's hello packet. Loading—Link-state request packets are sent to the neighbor to acquire more recent advertisements that have been discovered (but not yet received) in the Exchange state. 2Way—Communication between the two routing devices is bidirectional. This state has been ensured by the operation of the Hello Protocol. This is the most advanced state short of beginning adjacency establishment. The (backup) designated router is selected from the set of neighbors in state 2Way or greater.	All levels
ID	Router ID of the neighbor.	All levels
Pri	Priority of the neighbor to become the designated router.	All levels
Dead	Number of seconds until the neighbor becomes unreachable.	All levels
Link state acknowledgment list	Number of link-state acknowledgments received.	extensive
Link state retransmission list	Total number of link-state advertisements retransmitted. For extensive output only, the following information is also displayed: Type—Type of link advertisement: ASBR, Sum, Extern, Network, NSSA, OpaqArea, Router, or Summary. LSA ID—LSA identifier included in the advertisement. An asterisk preceding the identifier marks database entries that originated from the local routing device. Adv rtr—Address of the routing device that sent the advertisement. Seq—Link sequence number of the advertisement.	detail extensive
Neighbor-address	(OSPFv3 only) If the neighbor uses virtual links, the Neighbor-address is the site-local, local, or global address. If the neighbor uses a physical interface, the Neighbor-address is an IPv6 link-local address.	detail extensive
area	Area that the neighbor is in.	detail extensive
OSPF3-Intf-Index	(OSPFv3 only) Displays the OSPFv3 interface index.	detail extensive
opt	Option bits received in the hello packets from the neighbor.	detail extensive
DR or DR-ID	Address of the designated router.	detail extensive
BDR or BDR-ID	Address of the backup designated router.	detail extensive
Up	Length of time since the neighbor came up.	detail extensive
adjacent	Length of time since the adjacency with the neighbor was established.	detail extensive
