Note

Note

This procedure only applies to the VSP 8600 Series.

About this task

Perform this task to configure an Open Shortest Path First Version 3 (OSPFv3) instance for a specific circuitless IP address on the Global Router (GRT).

Procedure

  1. Enter Global Configuration mode:

    enable

    configure terminal

  2. Enter OSPF Configuration mode:

    router ospf

  3. Create the IPv6 OSPF area:

    ipv6 area {A.B.C.D}

  4. Return to Global Configuration mode:

    end

  5. Enable IPv6 OSPF router configuration:

    router ospf ipv6-enable

  6. Enter Loopback Interface Configuration mode:

    interface Loopback <1-256>

  7. Create the IPv6 loopback interface address:

    ipv6 interface address WORD<0-255>

  8. Create the OSPFv3 instance:

    ipv6 ospf [<1-256>] area {A.B.C.D}

  9. Enable the OSPFv3 instance:

    ipv6 ospf [<1-256>] enable

Example

Configuring the OSPFv3 instance on the loopback interface on the GRT:

Switch:1>enable
Switch:1#configure terminal
Switch:1(config)#router ospf
Switch:1{config-ospf)#ipv6 area 192.2.0.1
Switch:1(config-ospf)#end
Switch:1(config)#router ospf ipv6-enable
Switch:1(config)#interface Loopback 2
Switch:1(config-if)#ipv6 interface address 2001::10:10:0:1/128
Switch:1(config-if)#ipv6 ospf 2 area 192.2.0.1
Switch:1(config-if)#ipv6 ospf 2 enable
