Configuring Passive-Interface

To suppress the interface’s participation on an OSPFv3 interface, use the following command.

This command stops the router from sending updates on that interface.
Specify whether some or all some of the interfaces are passive. CONF-IPV6-ROUTER-OSPF mode passive-interface {type slot/port} Interface: identifies the specific interface that is passive.
  • For a Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword GigabitEthernet then the slot/port information (for example, passive-interface gi 2/1).
  • For a port channel, enter the keywords port-channel then a number from 1 to 255 (for example, passive-interface po 100 )
  • For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port information (for example, passive-interface ten 2/3).
  • For a VLAN, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094 (for example, passive-interface vlan 2222 ).
To enable both receiving and sending routing updates, use the no passive-interface interface command.

To indicate that hello packets are not transmitted on that interface, when you configure a passive interface, the show ipv6 ospf interface command adds the words passive interface.
