OSPFv3 Commands
Open shortest path first version 3 (OSPFv3) for IPv6 is supported on the S4048–ON platform.
The fundamental mechanisms of OSPF (flooding, DR election, area support, SPF calculations, and so on)
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 Networking implementation of OSPFv3 is based on IETF RFC 2740.
area authentication
Configure an IPsec authentication policy for OSPFv3 packets in an OFSPFv3 area.
Syntax
area area-id authentication ipsec spi number {MD5 | SHA1} [key-
encryption-type] key
Parameters
area area-id
Area for which OSPFv3 traffic is to be authenticated. For area-id,
you can enter a number.
The range is from 0 to 4294967295.
