Syntax:show ip ospf [vrf vrf-name] database external-link-state [ advertise num | extensive | link-state-id A.B.C.D | router-id A.B.C.D |
sequence-number num(Hex)]
The vrf vrf-name parameter displays information for a VRF, or a specic vrf-name.
The advertise num parameter displays the decoded data in the specied LSA packet. The num parameter identies the LSA packet by
its position in the router’s External LSA table. To determine an LSA packet’s position in the table, enter the show ip ospf external-link-
state command to display the table.
The extensive option displays the LSAs in the decoded format.
NOTE
You cannot use the extensive option in combination with other display options. The entire database is displayed.
The link-state-id A.B.C.D parameter displays the External LSAs for the LSA source specied by A.B.C.D (link state ID).
The router-id A.B.C.D (advertising router ID) parameter shows the External LSAs for the specied OSPF router.
The sequence-number num(Hex) parameter displays the External LSA entries for the specied hexadecimal LSA sequence number.
