Configuring OSPFv3 48 After this distribution list is configured, the internal routes would be included, and the external routes would be omitted from the OSPFv3 route table.

This feature is called "default route origination" or "default information origination." By default, the Brocade device does not advertise the default route into the OSPFv3 domain. If you want the device to advertise the OSPF default route, you must explicitly enable default route origination. When you enable OSPF default route origination, the device advertises a type 5 default route that is flooded throughout the AS (except stub areas). The device advertises the default route into OSPF even if OSPF route redistribution is not enabled, and even if the default route is learned through an IBGP neighbor. NOTE The Brocade device does not advertise the OSPF default route, regardless of other configuration parameters, unless you explicitly enable default route origination. If default route origination is enabled and you disable it, the default route originated by the device is flushed. Default routes generated by other OSPF routers are not affected. If you re-enable the feature, the feature takes effect immediately and thus does not require you to reload the software. For example, to create and advertise a default route with a metric of 2 and as a type 1 external route, enter the following command. BigIron RX(config-ospf6-router)# default-information-originate always metric 2 metric-type type1 Syntax: [no] default-information-originate [always] [metric ] [metric-type ] The always keyword originates a default route regardless of whether the device has learned a default route. This option is disabled by default. The metric parameter specifies a metric for the default route. If this option is not used, the value of the default-metric command is used for the route. For information about this command, refer to "Modifying default metric for routes redistributed into OSPF version 3" on page 1208 BigIron RX Series Configuration Guide 53-1001810-01 1213
