OSPF/6/CONFLICT_ROUTERID_INTER
Message
OSPF/6/CONFLICT_ROUTERID_INTER: OSPF router ID conflict may have occurred in inter-area.(ProcessId=[ProcessId], RouterId=[RouterId])
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 device. |
Possible Causes
At least two indirectly connected devices were configured with the same router ID, causing router LSAs to be constantly refreshed. As a result, route flapping occurs.
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 very 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.
