Chapter 39 Configuring IPv6 Unicast Routing

Configuring IPv6

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these required and optional steps to configure IPv6 OSPF:

 

Command

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

 

 

ipv6 router ospf process-id

Enable OSPF router configuration mode for the process. The

 

 

process ID is the number assigned administratively when

 

 

enabling the OSPF for IPv6 routing process. It is locally

 

 

assigned and can be a positive integer from 1 to 65535.

Step 3

 

 

area area-id range {ipv6-prefix/prefix length}

(Optional) Consolidate and summarize routes at an area

 

[advertise not-advertise] [cost cost]

boundary.

 

 

area-id—Identifier of the area about which routes are to be

 

 

summarized. It can be specified as either a decimal value or

 

 

as an IPv6 prefix.

 

 

ipv6-prefix/prefixlength—The destination IPv6 network and

 

 

a decimal value that shows how many of the high-order

 

 

contiguous bits of the address comprise the prefix (the

 

 

network portion of the address). A slash mark (/) must

 

 

precede the decimal value.

 

 

advertise—(Optional) Set the address range status to

 

 

advertise and generate a Type 3 summary link-state

 

 

advertisement (LSA).

 

 

not-advertise—(Optional) Set the address range status to

 

 

DoNotAdvertise. The Type 3 summary LSA is suppressed,

 

 

and component networks remain hidden from other

 

 

networks.

 

 

cost cost—(Optional) Metric or cost for this summary route,

 

 

which is used during OSPF SPF calculation to determine the

 

 

shortest paths to the destination. The value can be 0 to

 

 

16777215.

Step 4

 

 

maximum paths number-paths

(Optional) Define the maximum number of equal-cost routes to

 

 

the same destination that IPv6 OSPF should enter in the routing

 

 

table. The range is from 1 to 64, and the default is 16 paths.

Step 5

 

 

exit

Return to global configuration mode.

Step 6

 

 

interface interface-id

Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the Layer 3

 

 

interface to configure.

Step 7

 

 

ipv6 ospf process-idarea area-id[instance

Enable OSPF for IPv6 on the interface.

 

instance-id]

instance instance-id—(Optional) Instance identifier.

 

 

Step 8

 

 

end

Return to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 9

 

 

show ipv6 ospf [process-id][area-id]interface

Display information about OSPF interfaces.

 

[interface-id]

 

 

or

 

 

show ipv6 ospf [process-id][area-id]

Display general information about OSPF routing processes.

Step 10

 

 

copy running-config startup-config

(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
