OSPF/6/CONFLICT_ROUTERID_INTER
Message
OSPF/6/CONFLICT_ROUTERID_INTER: OSPF Router id conflict maybe occur on inter-area. (ProcessId=[USHORT], RouterId=[IPADDR])
Description
The router IDs of OSPF devices in different areas might conflict because external routes were constantly refreshed.
Parameters
Parameter Name | Parameter Meaning |
---|---|
ProcessId | Indicates the ID of a process. |
RouterId | Indicates the ID of a router. |
Possible Causes
The same router ID was configured for devices in different areas, causing route flapping.
This log is generated in the following scenarios:
- Normal scenario: Device A generates a Type 5 LSA and floods it to Device B. Due to a fault, Device A restarts and reestablishes the neighbor relationship with Device B. Then, Device A receives the Type 5 LSA generated by itself from Device B. Because the router ID in the LSA conflicts with the local one, the log is generated. A large number of Type 5 LSAs may exist in the system. Therefore, this scenario is common. The log generated in this scenario requires no action.
- Conflict scenario: The same router ID is configured for devices in different areas, causing route flapping.
