Configuring Ospfv3 Network Types; Configuration Prerequisites; Configuring The Ospfv3 Network Type For An Interface; Configuring An Nbma Or P2Mp Neighbor - HP 6125G Configuration Manual

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter OSPFv3 view.
3. Enter OSPFv3 area view.
4. Configure a virtual link.

Configuring OSPFv3 network types

OSPFv3 classifies networks into the following types by the link layer protocol.
By default, the default OSPFv3 interface network types vary with the link layer protocols of the interfaces:
• When the link layer protocol is PPP, OSPFv3 considers the network type as P2P by default.
When the link layer protocol is Ethernet, OSPFv3 considers the network type as broadcast by
•
default.
You can change the network type of an OSPFv3 interface as needed. For example:
An NBMA network must be fully connected. Any two routers in the network must be directly
•
reachable to each other through a virtual circuit. If no such direct link is available, you must change
the network type through a command.
If direct connections are not available between some routers in an NBMA network, the type of
•
interfaces associated must be configured as P2MP, or as P2P for interfaces with only one neighbor.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure OSPFv3 network types, complete the following tasks:
• Configure IPv6 functions.
Configure OSPFv3 basic functions.
•

Configuring the OSPFv3 network type for an interface

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure a network type for
the OSPFv3 interface.

Configuring an NBMA or P2MP neighbor

For NBMA and P2MP interfaces (only when in unicast mode), specify the link-local IP addresses of their
neighbors because these interfaces cannot find neighbors through broadcasting hello packets. You can
also specify DR priorities for neighbors.
