 Configure the Advanced OSPFv3 Configuration settings.
7. Enter the Router ID in 32-bit integer
, dotted decimal format that uniquely identifies the router
within the autonomous system (AS). If you want to change the Router ID you must first
disable OSPFv3. After you set the new Router ID, you must re-enable OSPFv3 to have the
change take effect. The default value is 0.0.0.0, although this is not a valid Router ID.
8. In the Admin Mode field, select Enable or Disable from the list. If you select Enable,
OSPFv3 will be activated for the switch.
The default value is Enable. You must configure a
Router ID before OSPFv3 can become operational. You do this on the IP Configuration
page, or by issuing the CLI command: config router id in ipv6 router ospf mode. For more
information, see IP Configuration on page 217.
Note: Once OSPFv3 is initialized on the router, it will remain initialized until
the router is reset.
9. When the number of non-default external LSAs exceeds a configured limit, the router enters
an overflow state as defined in RFC 1765. Use the Exit Overflow Interval field to specify
the number of seconds that, after entering overflow state, the router must wait before
attempting to leave overflow state. Because OSPFv3 cannot originate non-default external
LSAs while in overflow state, this allows the router to again originate non-default
AS-external-LSAs. If you enter an Exit Overflow Interval of 0, the router will not leave
overflow state until it is restarted.
The range is 0 to 2,147,483,647 seconds. The default is 0.
10. Enter the External LSDB Limit.
This is the maximum number of AS-External-LSAs that can
be stored in the database. A value of –1 implies there is no limit on the number that can be
saved. The valid range of values is –1 to 2147483647. The default is –1 (no limit).
