4.5.7. OSPF Troubleshooting
There are two special ways of troubleshooting OSPF issues:
•
Additonal OSPF Log Event Messages.
•
The OSPF CLI command.
These are discussed next.
Additional OSPF Log Event Messages
By default, a range of basic log event messages are generated by OSPF operation within
NetDefendOS. For example, if the OSPFProcess object running under NetDefendOS is called
my_ospf_proc, normal log generation would be enabled with the CLI command:
gw-world:/> set OSPFProcess my_ospf_proc LogEnabled=Yes
This is the default setting so the command is only for illustration.
The following properties can be enabled to provide additional OSPF log messages for
troubleshooting and/or monitoring purposes:
•
DebugPacket - Log general packet parsing events.
•
DebugHello - Log Hello packets.
•
DebugDDesc - Log database description packets.
•
DebugExchange - Log exchange packets.
•
DebugLSA - Log LSA events.
•
DebugSPF - Log SPF calulation events.
•
DebugRoute - Log routing table manipulation events.
Each of these properties can be assigned one of the following values:
•
Off - Nothing is logged.
•
Low - Logs all actions.
•
Medium - Logs all actions but with more detail.
