# OSPF Virtual Neighbor Configuration

The OSPF Virutal Neighbor Configuration dialog box displays the virutal neighbor configuration details of OSPF.

## Procedure

For CiscoView versions earlier than 5.2:

1. Right-click the device. Then select Configure, or double-click the device.

2. Select Protocols from the Category list.

3. Select OSPF from the SelectProtocol list. Then click the Details button. The OSPF Configuration dialog box appears.

4. Select Virtual Neighbor Configuration from the Category list.

For CiscoView version 5.2 and later:

1. Right-click the device, then select Configure, or double-click the device.

2. Select Protocols from the Category list.

3. Select OSPF from the SelectProtocol list. Then click the Details button. The OSPF Configuration dialog box appears.

   Note: The left frame in the dialog box displays the categories and the right frame displays the category details or a table. If a table is displayed, the variable on which the table is indexed and the key values of the index are listed below the category. Double-click the category to view the table and double-click a key value to view details of a particular row in the table.

   Multiple indexes for a table, if any, are listed below the category in a nested manner. Select a key value to view the rows of the table about that value. Select a key value of the lowest indexing variable to view the details of that particular row.

4. Select Virtual Neighbor Configuration from the left pane.

The following information appears:

Transit Area Identifier (ospfVirtNbrArea)

Neighbor Router Identifying ID (ospfVirtNbrRtrId)

Neighbor's IP Address (ospfVirtNbrIpAddr)

Neighbor's Options (ospfVirtNbrOptions)

Neighbor Relationship State (ospfVirtNbrState)

### Transit Area Identifier (ospfVirtNbrArea)

Identifies the transit area.

### Neighbor Router Identifying ID (ospfVirtNbrRtrId)

32-bit integer that uniquely identifies the neighboring router in the autonomous system.

### Neighbor's IP Address (ospfVirtNbrIpAddr)

IP address used by the virtual neighbor.

### Neighbor's Options (ospfVirtNbrOptions)

Bit map corresponding to the neighbor's options field. Thus, bit 1, if set, means that the neighbor supports the type of service routing; if zero, no metrics other than ToS 0 is in use by the neighbor.

### Neighbor Relationship State (ospfVirtNbrState)

State of the virtual neighbor relationship. State can be:

Value | Description
1 | down
2 | attempt
3 | init
4 | twoWay
5 | exchangeStart
6 | exchange
7 | loading
8 | full
