Configuring OSPFv3 interface settings

You can optionally adjust the following OSPFv3 interface settings.

Prerequisites
You must be in the interface configuration context, as indicated by the switch(config-if)# prompt.
Procedure
  • Set the interface cost using the following command. For command details, see ipv6 ospfv3 cost.

    ipv6 ospfv3 cost <interface-cost>

    For example, the following command sets the cost associated with interface 1/1/1 to 100.
    switch(config)# interface 1/1/1
    switch(config-if)# ipv6 ospfv3 cost 100
  • Set the time interval between OSPFv3 hello packets for the OSPFv3 interface using the following command. For command details, see ipv6 ospfv3 hello-interval.

    ipv6 ospfv3 hello-interval <seconds>

  • Set the interval after which a neighbor is declared dead if no hello packet is received on the OSPFv3 interface using the following command. For command details, see ipv6 ospfv3 dead-interval.

    ipv6 ospfv3 dead-interval <seconds>

  • Set the time between re-transmitting lost link state advertisements for the OSPFv3 interface using the following command. For command details, see ipv6 ospfv3 retransmit-interval.

    ipv6 ospfv3 retransmit-interval <seconds>

  • Sets the time delay in Link state transmission for the OSPFv3 interface using the following command. For command details, see ipv6 ospfv3 transit-delay.

    ipv6 ospfv3 transit-delay <seconds>

  • Set the OSPFv3 network type for the interface. For command details, see ipv6 ospfv3 network.

    ipv6 ospfv3 network {broadcast|point-to-point}

  • Set the OSPFv3 priority on the interface using the following command. For command details, see ipv6 ospfv3 priority.

    ipv6 ospfv3 priority <number-value>

  • Set the OSPFv3 interface as OSPFv3 passive interface. With this setting the interface participates in OSPFv3 but does not send or receive packets on that interface. For command details, see ipv6 ospfv3 passive.
