Configuring OSPF global parameters
Configure Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) version 3 global parameters to affect OSPF routing
on the entire switch. Routers use the OSPFv3 protocol to exchange network topology
information, providing each router with a map of the network.
Procedure steps
Configure OSPFv3 by using the following command:
config ipv6 ospf
Variable definitions
Use the data in the following table to use the
config ipv6 ospf
command.
Variable Value
as-boundary-router <enable|
disable>
Enables or disables the OSPF Autonomous System
boundary router. The default is disable.
disable Globally disables OSPF on the switch.
enable Globally enables OSPF on the switch.
info Displays the current OSPF configuration on the
switch.
router-id <RTR_ADDR> Configures the OSPF router ID IPv4 address.
<RTR_ADDR> is the IPv4 address in dotted decimal
format {a.b.c.d}.
Configuring OSPF areas
OSPF supports hierarchical routing by dividing the Autonomous System into different areas.
When two or more areas exist, the backbone area (area 0.0.0.0) must always be present.
You can use any value for the OSPF area name (for example, 1.1.1.1 or 200.200.200.200).
