Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv2 and OSPFv3) | 1063
OSPFv3 Commands
Open Shortest Path First version 3 (OSPFv3) for IPv6 is supported on the c and e platforms.
The fundamental mechanisms of OSPF (flooding, DR election, area support, SPF calculations, etc.)
remain unchanged. However, OSPFv3 runs on a per-link basis instead of on a per-IP-subnet basis.
Most changes were necessary to handle the increased address size of IPv6.
The Dell Force10 implementation of OSPFv3 is based on IETF RFC 2740. The following commands
allow you to configure and enable OSPFv3.
• area authentication
• area encryption
• clear ipv6 ospf process
• debug ipv6 ospf packet
• default-information originate
• graceful-restart grace-period
• graceful-restart mode
• ipv6 ospf area
• ipv6 ospf authentication
• ipv6 ospf cost
• ipv6 ospf dead-interval
• ipv6 ospf encryption
• ipv6 ospf graceful-restart helper-reject
• ipv6 ospf hello-interval
• ipv6 ospf priority
• ipv6 router ospf
• passive-interface
• redistribute
• router-id
• show crypto ipsec policy
• show crypto ipsec sa ipv6
• show ipv6 ospf database
• show ipv6 ospf interface
• show ipv6 ospf neighbor
Note: The C-Series supports OSPFv3 with FTOS version 7.8.1.0 and later.
