OSPFV3 FOR IPV6 COMMANDS
RESTART
IPV6 OSPF GRACEFUL
restart ipv6 ospf graceful
Overview Use this command to force the OSPFv3 process to restart. You may optionally
specify a grace-period value. If a grace-period is not specified then a default value
of 120 seconds is applied.
You should specify a grace-period value of 120 seconds or more. Low grace-period
values may cause the graceful restart process on neighboring routers to terminate
with routes missing.
Syntax
restart ipv6 ospf graceful [grace-period <1-1800>]
Default The default OSPF grace-period is 120 seconds.
Mode Privileged Exec
Usage notes After this command is executed, the OSPFv3 process immediately shuts down. It
notifies the system that OSPF has performed a graceful shutdown. Routes installed
by OSPF are preserved until the grace-period expires.
When a restart ospf graceful command is issued, the OSPF configuration is
reloaded from the last saved configuration. Ensure you first enter the copy
running-config startup- config command.
Example To restart OSPFv3, use the following commands:
awplus# copy running-config startup-config
awplus# restart ipv6 ospf graceful grace-period 200
To apply the default grace-period (120 seconds), use the following commands:
awplus# copy running-config startup-config
awplus# restart ipv6 ospf graceful
Parameter Description
grace-period Specify the grace period.
<1-1800> The grace period in seconds.
