Assigning OSPFv3 Process ID and Router ID to a VRF
To assign, disable, or reset OSPFv3 on a non-default VRF, use the following commands.
Enable the OSPFv3 process on a non-default VRF and enter OSPFv3 mode.
CONFIGURATION mode
ipv6 router ospf {process ID}}
The process ID range is from 0 to 65535.
Assign the router ID for this OSPFv3 process.
CONF-IPV6-ROUTER-OSPF mode
router-id {number}
number: the IPv4 address.
The format is A.B.C.D.
NOTE:
Enter the router-id for an OSPFv3 router as an IPv4 IP address.
Disable OSPF.
CONFIGURATION mode
no ipv6 router ospf process-id vrf {vrf-name}
Reset the OSPFv3 process.
EXEC Privilege mode
clear ipv6 ospf [vrf vrf-name] process
Configuring Stub Areas
To configure IPv6 stub areas, use the following command.
Configure the area as a stub area.
CONF-IPV6-ROUTER-OSPF mode
area area-id stub [no-summary]
no-summary: use these keywords to prevent transmission in to the area of summary ASBR LSAs.
Area ID: a number or IP address assigned when creating the area. You can represent the area ID as a number from 0 to 65536 if
you assign a dotted decimal format rather than an IP address.
Configuring Passive-Interface
To suppress the interface’s participation on an OSPFv3 interface, use the following command.
This command stops the router from sending updates on that interface.
Specify whether some or all some of the interfaces are passive.
CONF-IPV6-ROUTER-OSPF mode
passive-interface {interface-type}
Interface: identifies the specific interface that is passive.
For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port/subport information.
For a 25-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword twentyFiveGigE then the slot/port/subport information.
For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port/subport information.
For a 50-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fiftyGigE then the slot/port/subport information.
For a 100-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword hundredGigE then the slot/port information.
For a port channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.
For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094.
To enable both receiving and sending routing updates, use the no passive-interface interface command.
To indicate that hello packets are not transmitted on that interface, when you configure a passive interface, the show ipv6 ospf
[vrf vrf-name] interface command adds the words passive interface.
