Enabling OSPFv3

When OSPFv3 is enabled on a device, the device enters OSPFv3 router configuration mode. Several commands can then be accessed that allow the configuration of OSPFv3.

About this task

1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
   

   device# configure terminal

2. Enter the ip router-id command to specify the router ID.
   

   device(config) ip router-id 10.11.12.13

3. Enter the ipv6 router ospf command to enter OSPFv3 router configuration mode and enable OSPFv3 on the device.
   

   device(config)# ipv6 router ospf
