Which command can display route calculation statistics in an OSPF process?

The command "display ospf spf-statistics" is used specifically to display statistics related to the Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm within the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol. This includes metrics such as the number of times the SPF calculation has been executed and how long those calculations took. Understanding these statistics is crucial for network engineers as it helps in analyzing the performance of OSPF routing decisions and identifying potential issues during the route calculation process.

The SPF algorithm is a key component of OSPF, and being able to monitor its statistics allows for better management of OSPF processes and more efficient network operation. By utilizing this command, network professionals can gather insights that inform adjustments to OSPF configurations, ensuring optimal routing and network performance.

In contrast, other commands provide different types of information. For instance, "display ospf cumulative" might provide overall statistics related to OSPF, "display ospf global-statistics" gives a broader overview of OSPF metrics and performance, while "display ospf request-queue" focuses on requests pending in the OSPF process. Each has its important applications, but none specifically target the metrics and diagnostics related to the SPF calculations like "display ospf
