passive-interface

Use this command to enable passive OSPFv3 on an interface.

Syntax

passive-interface {vlan-id | interface-name | default}
no passive-interface {vlan-id | interface-name | default}

Parameters

vlan-id Specifies the VLAN number on which to enable passive OSPF mode.
interface-name Specifies a VLAN in the interface-name format: vlan.x.y
default Sets all enabled OSPF interfaces to passive.

Defaults

None.

Mode

OSPFv3 router configuration.

Usage

The passive interface feature allows an interface to be included in the OSPFv3 route table, but turns off sending and receiving hellos for the specified interface. It also prevents OSPFv3 adjacencies from being formed on the specified interface.

The “no” form of this command disables passive OSPFv3 interface mode.

Example

This example shows how to enable passive OSPFv3 mode on VLAN 102 (can be specified as vlan 102 or vlan.0.102):

System(rw-config)ipv6 router ospf 1
System(rw-config-ospfv3)->passive-interface vlan 102
