Use this command to configure the OSPFv3 network link type.
non-broadcast | Specifies this interface is a non-broadcast or Non-Broadcast-Multi-Access (NBMA) network link type. |
broadcast | Specifies this interface is a broadcast network link type. Default. |
point-to-point | Specifies this interface is a point-to-point network link type. |
point-to-multipoint | Specifies this interface is a point-to-point network link type. |
None.
Interface configuration.
The “no” form of this command resets the network type to broadcast.
When routers in your network do not support multicast addressing, you can configure them as NBMA networks. NBMA networks can be configured as broadcast networks to avoid the need to configure neighbors. But configuring NBMA networks as either broadcast or nonbroadcast assumes a fully meshed virtual circuit network configuration. For partially meshed networks, configure network type to point-to-multipoint.
This example shows how to set the OSPFv3 interface link type to point-to-point:
System(su)->configure System(su-config)->interface vlan 15 System(su-config-intf-vlan.0.15)->ipv6 ospf network point-to-point
