I was testing some OSPF features and wanted to check routes learned via OSPF. Before going into LSA database, I checked RIB, but the output format was not what I was expecting:
OSPF Router with ID (1.1.1.1) (Process ID 1)
Area BACKBONE(0)
Intra-area Route List
* 1.1.1.1/32, Intra, cost 1, area 0, Connected
via 1.1.1.1, Loopback0
* 11.11.11.11/32, Intra, cost 1, area 0, Connected
via 11.11.11.11, Loopback11
Intra-area Router Path List
i 4.4.4.4 [564] via 192.168.12.2, Serial1/0.12, ABR, Area 0, SPF 11
Inter-area Route List
*> 4.4.4.4/32, Inter, cost 565, area 0
via 192.168.12.2, Serial1/0.12
Area 1
Intra-area Route List
*> 192.168.24.0/24, Intra, cost 564, area 1
via 192.168.12.2, Serial1/0.12
So, I checked what I typed in the command line. It was "R1#sho ip ospf route" instead of "show ip route ospf". However, "route" does not show up as an option for "show ip ospf" command:
R1#sho ip ospf ?I am running 12.4(15)T14 on the router. This is very useful command and output is easier to interpret than "show ip ospf database". Why does Cisco keep it hidden?
