# OSPF Neighbor Configuration

The OSPF Neighbor Configuration dialog box displays the neighbour 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 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 Neighbor Configuration from the left pane.

The following information appears:

Neighbor IP Address (ospfNbrIpAddr)

Addressless Interface (ospfNbrAddressLessIndex)

Neighbor Router Identifying ID (ospfNbrRtrId)

Neighbor Options (ospfNbrOptions)

Priority for DR election Algorithm (ospfNbrPriority)

Neighbor Relationship State (ospfNbrState)

### Neighbor IP Address (ospfNbrIpAddr)

IP address of the neighbor.

### Addressless Interface (ospfNbrAddressLessIndex)

On an interface having an IP address, this object takes the value zero. On addressless interfaces, this object takes the value corresponding to value of ifIndex in the Internet Standard MIB. On row creation, the value of this object can be derived from the instance.

### Neighbor Router Identifying ID (ospfNbrRtrId)

32-bit integer (represented as a type IpAddress) that uniquely identifies the neighboring router in the autonomous system.

### Neighbor Options (ospfNbrOptions)

Bit mask corresponding to the neighbor's options field.

Bit 0, if set, indicates that the area accepts and operates on external information; if zero, it is a stub area.

Bit 1, if set, indicates that the system operates on Type of Service metrics other than ToS 0. If zero, the neighbor ignores all metrics except the ToS 0 metric.

### Priority for DR election Algorithm (ospfNbrPriority)

Priority of the neighbor in the designated router election algorithm. The value 0 signifies that the neighbor is not eligible to become the designated router on this particular network.

### Neighbor Relationship State (ospfNbrState)

State of the router's relationship with this neighbor. State can be:

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