Configuration Task List for OSPFv3 (OSPF for IPv6)

Open Shortest Path First version 3 (OSPF for IPv6)

The configuration options of OSPFv3 are the same as those for OSPFv2, but may be configured with

differently labeled commands. Process IDs and areas need to be specified. Interfaces and addresses need to

be included in the process. Areas can be defined as stub or totally stubby.

The interfaces must be in IPv6 Layer-3 mode (assigned an IPv6 IP address) and enabled so that they can

send and receive traffic. The OSPF process must know about these interfaces. To make the OSPF process

aware of these interfaces, they must be assigned to OSPF areas.

With OSPFv2, two commands are required to accomplish the same tasks: the

All IPv6 addresses on an interface are included in the OSPFv3 process that is created on the interface.

the interface are included in the specified OSPF process.
