Configuring OSPF area virtual interfaces

If a remote OSPF ABR uses no connection to the backbone area but needs to be part of the
same routing domain (AS) in which the switch resides, configure an OSPFv3 virtual interface
to the ABR.
You can use any value for the OSPFv3 area name (for example, 1.1.1.1 or 200.200.200.200).
Important:
OSPFv3 behavior is modified according to OSPFv3 standards so that OSPFv3 routes
cannot be learned through an area border router (ABR) unless the router connects to the
backbone or through a virtual link.
Procedure steps
Configure an OSPFv3 area virtual interface by using the following command:
config ipv6 ospf area <ipaddr> virtual-interface <ipaddr>
Variable definitions
Use the data in the following table to use the config ip ospf area virtual-
interface command.
