Property Description
address ( read-only: IP address ) - appropriate IP address of the neighbour
backup-dr-id ( read-only: IP address ) - backup designated router's router id for this neighbor
db-summaries ( read-only: integer ) - number of records in link-state database advertised by the
neighbour
dr-id ( read-only: IP address ) - designated router's router id for this neighbor
ls-requests ( read-only: integer ) - number of link-state requests
ls-retransmits ( read-only: integer ) - number of link-state retransmits
priority ( read-only: integer ) - the priority of the neigbour which is used in designated router
elections via Hello protocol on this network
router-id ( read-only: IP address ) - the router-id parameter of the neighbour
state ( read-only: Down | Attempt | Init | 2-Way | ExStart | Exchange | Loading | Full ) - the state of
the connection:
• Down - the connection is down
• Attempt - the router is sending Hello protocol packets
• Init - Hello packets are exchanged between routers to create a Neighbour Relationship
• 2-Way - the routers add each other to their Neighbour database and they become neighbours
• ExStart - the DR (Designated Router) and BDR (Backup Designated Router) create an
adjancency with each other and they begin creating their link-state databases using Database
Description Packets
• Exchange - is the process of discovering routes by exchanging Database Description Packets
• Loading - receiving information from the neighbour
• Full - the link-state databases are completely synchronized. The routers are routing traffic and
continue sending each other hello packets to maintain the adjacency and the routing information
state-changes ( read-only: integer ) - number of connection state changes
Notes
The neighbour's list also displays the router itself with 2-Way state
Example
The following text can be observed just after adding an OSPF network:
admin@MikroTik] routing ospf> neighbor print
router-id=10.0.0.204 address=10.0.0.204 priority=1 state="2-Way"
state-changes=0 ls-retransmits=0 ls-requests=0 db-summaries=0
dr-id=0.0.0.0 backup-dr-id=0.0.0.0
[admin@MikroTik] routing ospf>
