Enabling OSPFv3
Prerequisites
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 need to 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. Therefore, you need to specify a unique router ID
for each OSPFv3 router within the AS to ensure normal operation.
Follow these steps to enable OSPFv3:
