clear (ospf | ospf3) database

Syntax

Syntax (EX Series Switch and QFX Series)

Description

With the primary Routing Engine, delete entries in the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) link-state advertisement (LSA) database. With the backup Routing Engine, delete the OSPF LSA database and sync the new database with the primary Routing Engine.

Options

all

Delete all LSAs other than the system’s own LSAs, which are regenerated. To resynchronize the database, the system destroys all adjacent neighbors that are in the state EXSTART or higher. The neighbors are then reacquired and the databases are synchronized.
