OSPFv3 graceful restart helper

The OSPFv3 graceful restart (GR) helper provides a device with the capability to participate in a graceful restart in helper mode so that it assists a neighboring routing device that is performing a graceful restart.

When OSPFv3 GR helper is enabled on a device, the device enters helper mode upon receipt of a grace-LSA where the neighbor state is full. By default, the helper capability is enabled when you start OSPFv3, even if graceful restart is not supported.

Note

Note

Process restart takes precedence over GR.
