State change, interface interface, new state state, event event

Explanation

The specified event occurred on the specified interface, causing its state to transition to the specified new state.

state is the Interface State Code. The Interface State Codes are described in RFC 2328. See Related protocol specifications for directions to get a copy of the RFC. The Interface State Codes can be one of the following:
1
Down
1*
Suspend. This state is not described in RFC2328. The interface is suspended for one of the following reasons:
  • You issued a MODIFY command.
  • After the interface exceeded the futile neighbor state loop threshold (DR_Max_adj_Attempt), the interface was unable to establish an adjacency with a neighboring designated router.

See the network design considerations with z/OS® Communications Server information in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Guide for more information about futile neighbor state loops.

2
Backup. This state is not described in RFC 2328. When more than one OSPF interface is defined to the same subnet, only one of the interfaces can be primary, meaning that it will be the interface to carry the OSPF protocol traffic between OMPROUTE and the subnet. All other interfaces to the same subnet will be in this state. Failure of the primary interface will result in automatic switching of OSPF traffic to one of the backup interfaces.

event is the Interface Event Code. The Interface Event Codes are described in RFC 2328. See Related protocol specifications for directions to get a copy of the RFC. The Interface Event Codes can be one of the following:

1
InterfaceUp
2
WaitTimer
3
BackupSeen
4
NeighborChange
5
LoopInd
6
UnloopInd
7
InterfaceDown
8
BackupUp. This state is not described in RFC 2328. Lower-level protocols have indicated that the network interface is operational. This interface is one of multiple OSPF interfaces defined to the same subnet and it is not the primary interface (the interface to carry the OSPF protocol traffic between OMPROUTE and the subnet). The interface will transition to Backup state.
9
InterfaceSuspend. This event is not described in RFC2328. The interface is suspended for one of the following reasons:
  • You issued a MODIFY command.
  • After the interface exceeded the futile neighbor state loop threshold (DR_Max_adj_Attempt), the interface was unable to establish an adjacency with a neighboring designated router.

See the network design considerations with z/OS Communications Server information in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Guide for more information about futile neighbor state loops.

10
InterfaceActivate. This event is not described in RFC2328. The interface is activated for one of the following reasons:
  • You issued a MODIFY command.
  • The interface can now establish adjacency with a neighboring designated router.
The interface will transition to one of the other states; however, the interface will not transition to 1 (Down).

See the network design considerations with z/OS Communications Server information in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Guide for more information about futile neighbor state loops.
