Conguring OSPFv3
To
congure OSPFv3, you must perform the following steps.
• Enable OSPFv3 globally.
• Assign OSPFv3 areas.
• Assign device interfaces to an OSPF area.
The following conguration tasks are optional:
• Congure a virtual link between an Area Border Router (ABR) without a physical connection to a backbone area and the device
in the same area with a physical connection to the backbone area.
• Change the reference bandwidth for the cost on OSPFv3 interfaces.
• Congure the redistribution of routes into OSPFv3.
• Congure default route origination.
• Modify the shortest path rst (SPF) timers.
• Modify the administrative distances for OSPFv3 routes.
• Congure the OSPFv3 LSA pacing interval.
• Modify how often the Brocade device checks on the elimination of the database overow condition.
• Modify the external link state database limit.
• Modify the default values of OSPFv3 parameters for device interfaces.
• Disable or re-enable OSPFv3 event logging.
• Set all the OSPFv3 interfaces to the passive state.
Enabling OSPFv3
Before enabling the device to run OSPFv3, you must perform the following steps.
• Enable the forwarding of IPv6 trac on the device using the ipv6 unicast-routing command.
• Enable IPv6 on each interface over which you plan to enable OSPFv3. You enable IPv6 on an interface by conguring an IPv6
address or explicitly enabling IPv6 on that interface.
By default, OSPFv3 is disabled. To enable OSPFv3 for a default Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF), you must enable it globally.
To enable OSPFv3 globally, enter the following command.
device(config)# ipv6 router ospf
device(config-ospf6-router)#
After you enter this command, the Brocade device enters the IPv6 OSPF conguration level, where you can access several commands
that allow you to congure OSPFv3.
