Interface OSPFv3 Parameters

To avoid routing errors, interface parameter values must be consistent across all interfaces. For example, set the same time interval for the hello packets on all routers in the OSPF network to prevent misconfiguration of OSPF neighbors.

  1. Enter the interface to change the OSPFv3 parameters in CONFIGURATION mode.
    interface interface-name
  2. Change the cost associated with OSPFv3 traffic on the interface in INTERFACE mode, from 1 to 65535. The default depends on the interface speed.
    ipv6 ospf cost
  3. Change the time interval the router waits before declaring a neighbor dead in INTERFACE mode, from 1 to 65535. The default is 40. The dead interval must be four times the hello interval. The dead interval must be the same on all routers in the OSPFv3 network.
    ipv6 ospf dead-interval seconds
  4. Change the time interval in seconds between hello-packet transmission in INTERFACE mode, from 1 to 65535. The default is 10. The hello interval must be the same on all routers in the OSPFv3 network.
    ipv6 ospf hello-interval seconds
    NOTE:When you copy and paste the ip ospf dead-interval and ip ospf hello-interval commands from the show running configuration output, the changes may not take effect if the configured dead interval is less than the default hello interval. This does not cause any issues while you save the configuration and reload the switch.
  5. Change the priority of the interface, which determines the DR for the OSPFv3 broadcast network in INTERFACE mode, from 0 to 255. The default is 1.
    ipv6 ospf priority number
  6. Change the default setting to ignore the MTU mismatch with the peer, when the MTU size of the peer interface is higher than the local MTU size.
    ipv6 ospf mtu-ignore
