Which FortiGate CLI command is used to view OSPF-related log messages?

execute log display filter category ospf

A FortiGate is not forming an OSPF adjacency with a neighboring router. The engineer runs 'get router info ospf neighbor' and sees no neighbors. The interface is up and has an IP address. Which command should the engineer run next to diagnose the issue?

diagnose sniffer packet any 'host and port 89' 4

What is the primary purpose of OSPF route summarization?

To reduce the size of the routing table and limit the propagation of topology changes

To increase the speed of OSPF neighbor adjacency formation

To enable OSPF to use a different routing protocol

To change the OSPF area type to stub

A network engineer is troubleshooting an OSPF adjacency between two FortiGate devices connected back-to-back. The interface on FortiGate A shows state 'Init' while FortiGate B shows '2-Way'. The engineer verifies that both devices have the same area ID, timers, and authentication settings. Which configuration mismatch is the most likely cause of this adjacency failure?

The subnet mask on FortiGate A is /24 while FortiGate B is /30.

The MTU on FortiGate A is set to 1500 while FortiGate B is set to 1400.

The OSPF router ID on FortiGate A is 1.1.1.1 and on FortiGate B is 2.2.2.2.

The interface on FortiGate A is configured as a passive interface.
