OSPF Enhanced Traffic Statistics
This document describes new and modified commands that provide enhanced OSPF traffic statistics for OSPFv2 and OSPFv3. The ability to collect and display more detailed traffic statistics increases high availability for the OSPF network by making the troubleshooting process more efficient.
New OSPF traffic statistics are collected and displayed to include the following information:
- OSPF Hello input queue and OSPF process queue status and statistics.
- Global OSPF traffic statistics.
- Per-OSPF-interface traffic statistics.
- Per-OSPF-process traffic statistics.

Finding Feature Information
Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module. For the latest feature information and caveats, see the release notes for your platform and software release. To find information about the features documented in this module, and to see a list of the releases in which each feature is supported, see the Feature Information Table at the end of this document.
Use Cisco Feature Navigator to find information about platform support and Cisco software image support. To access Cisco Feature Navigator, go to www.cisco.com/go/cfn. An account on Cisco.com is not required.
Prerequisites for OSPF Enhanced Traffic Statistics
OSPFv2 or OSPFv3 must be configured on the router.
Information About OSPF Enhanced Traffic Statistics
The OSPF enhanced traffic statistics are enabled by default and cannot be disabled.
The detailed OSPF traffic statistics are especially beneficial for troubleshooting the following types of OSPF instabilities:
- OSPF process queue status and statistical information can help the network administrator determine if an OSPF process can handle the amount of traffic sent to OSPF.
- OSPF packet header errors and LSA errors statistics keep a record of different errors found in received OSPF packets.
OSPF enhanced traffic control statistics also monitor the amount of traffic control exchanged between OSPF processes--an important consideration in network environments with slow links and frequent topology changes.
