Field Content
Inter-area distance the administrative distance for routes between areas within
the same OSPF domain
AS-external the administrative distance for routes between the OSPF
domain and other, Exterior Gateway Protocol domains
Default import metric the default metric that will be used for any routes redistributed
into OSPF by this routing switch
Default import metric type the metric type (type 1 or type 2) that will be used for any routes
redistributed into OSPF by this routing switch
Area Border whether this routing switch is currently acting as an area
border router
AS Border whether this routing switch is currently acting as an
autonomous system border router (redistributing routes)
External LSA Count the total number of external LSAs currently in the routing
switch's link state database
External LSA Checksum Sum the sum of the checksums of all external LSAs currently in the
routing switch's link state database (quick check for whether
