Overview

3 steps to configure OSPFv3.

  • Create a router-id (optional)
  • Assign OSPF neighbor facing interfaces to OSPF area
  • Inject routes into OSPF via passive interfaces

Configuration

Create a router-id.

cmd
set routing-options router-id 10.255.1.1

Assign OSPF neighbor facing interfaces to OSPF area.

cmd
set protocols ospf3 area 0.0.0.0 interface ge-0/0/2.0

set protocols ospf3 realm ipv4-unicast area 0.0.0.0 interface ge-0/0/2.0

Inject routes into OSPF via passive interfaces.

cmd
set protocols ospf3 area 0.0.0.13 interface ge-0/0/3.0 passive

set protocols ospf3 realm ipv4-unicast area 0.0.0.13 interface ge-0/0/3.0 passive

Topology

set protocols ospf3 area 0.0.0.14 interface ge-0/0/4.0 passive
set protocols ospf3 realm ipv4-unicast area 0.0.0.14 interface ge-0/0/4.0 passive
