It is similar to OSPFv2 in its concept of a link state database, intra- and inter-area, and AS external routes and virtual links. It differs from its IPv4 counterpoint in a number of respects, including the following: Peering is done through link-local addresses; the protocol is link based rather than network based; and addressing semantics have been moved to leaf LSAs, which eventually allow its use for both IPv4 and IPv6. Point-to-point links are also supported in order to enable operation over tunnels. It is possible to enable OSPF and OSPFv3 at the same time. OSPF works with IPv4, and OSPFv3 works with IPv6. The following example shows how to configure OSPFv3 on a IPv6 network. Switch A1 Switch A2 Area 0 Figure 14. OSPFv3 Protocol for IPv6 CLI: Configure OSPFv3 1.
