Description: The sum total number of Database Description packets which have been received that either a) has an unexpected DD sequence number b) Unexpectedly has the init bit set c) Has an options field differing from the last Options field received in a Database Description packet. Any of these conditions indicate that some error has occured during adjacency establishment for all OSPF areas and interfaces.

What is ospfCumNbrBadSequence?

Counts the total number of malformed or out-of-sequence Database Description packets received across all OSPF areas and interfaces, including those with unexpected sequence numbers, unexpected Init bits, or mismatched Options fields. Elevated counts suggest OSPF adjacency negotiation errors or potential neighbor communication issues.
