OSPF priority

Dubuku57

Hi everyone,

Apparently using the sh ip ospf int commandwe can see the router priority, but im unable to see it on my simulator...Could someone point out which is the Router priority here? Is it not shown because its by default = 1?


Serial0/0/0 is up, line protocol is up
Internet address is 200.120.45.254/30, Area 0
Process ID 1, Router ID 200.120.45.254, Network Type POINT-TO-POINT, Cost: 195
Transmit Delay is 1 sec, State POINT-TO-POINT,
Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5
Hello due in 00:00:09
Index 2/2, flood queue length 0
Next 0x0(0)/0x0(0)
Last flood scan length is 1, maximum is 1
Last flood scan time is 0 msec, maximum is 0 msec
Neighbor Count is 1 , Adjacent neighbor count is 1
Adjacent with neighbor 200.120.45.253
Suppress hello for 0 neighbor(s)

Thank you.

When ospf is configured on a point to point link there is no need to determine which router is the DR since it is just a point to point link, the link is either up or not up.

Lab it up via ethernet connection and run the command to see the results you are looking for.
