The 'debug ip ospf packet' Privileged Command

The debug ip ospf packet privileged command displays information about every OSPF packet that is received by the router, eg: OSPF version, OSPF packet type, packet length, router ID, area ID, authentication type, and authentication key.

The output of the command varies slightly depending upon the configured authentication method.

Field Description
v OSPF version
t OSPF packet type
1 – Hello
2 – Database Description
3 – Link State Request
4 – Link State Update
5 – Link State Acknowledge
l OSPF packet length in bytes
rid OSPF router ID
aid OSPF area ID
chk OSPF checksum
aut OSPF authentication type
0 – No authentication
1 – Simple password
2 – MD5
auk OSPF authentication key
keyid MD5 key ID
seq Sequence number

When null authentication is used:
Router#debug ip ospf packet
OSPF packet debugging is on
Router#
Router#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#router ospf 100
Router(config-router)#network 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 area 0
Router(config-router)#end

    Thanks! I'm sure this is available elsewhere, but you presented the information here in a very clear and helpful way! Now I am in search of a command that does the same (or something similar) for OSPF packets being SENT ......

    In this post you added the data how to compose a resume. This redirection is so troublesome and such sort of the diversions I to an incredible degree like. I check http://www.ukraineoutsourcingrates.com/top-outsourcing-software-development-companies-in-mykolaiv/ site to finish the majority of the stages in any case because of the tactlessness,
