Enabling OSPFv3

Configuration prerequisites

Before you enable OSPFv3, complete the following tasks:
• Make neighboring nodes accessible with each other at the network layer.
Enable IPv6 packet forwarding.
•
Enabling OSPFv3
To enable an OSPFv3 process on a router, you must enable the OSPFv3 process globally, assign the
OSPFv3 process a router ID, and enable the OSPFv3 process on related interfaces.
A router ID uniquely identifies a router within an AS. You must specify a unique router ID for each OSPFv3
router within the AS to ensure normal operation.
To enable OSPFv3:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable an OSPFv3 process
and enter its view.
3. Specify a router ID.
4. Enter interface view.
5. Enable an OSPFv3 process on
the interface.

Configuring OSPFv3 area parameters

The stub area and virtual link features of OSPFv3 are the same as OSPFv2.
Splitting an OSPFv3 AS into multiple areas reduces the number of LSAs and extends OSPFv3
applications. For those non-backbone areas residing on the AS boundary, configure them as stub areas
to further reduce the size of routing tables and the number of LSAs.
