Description

Open OSPF is a widely used IGP in IPv4, IPv6, and dual-stack (IPv4/IPv6) environments. The OSPF upgrade to support IPv6 generated a number of significant changes to how the protocol behaves. Understanding the differences between OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 is required for the successful deployment and operation of an IPv6 network using OSPF for routing. This lesson describes OSPFv3, the IPv6-capable version of the OSPF routing protocol, including its operations, configuration, and commands.
|n This course describes how to implement OSPFv3 in a dual-stack (IPv4/IPv6) environment and configure external route summarization and load balancing in OSPFv3. The limitations and where you need to be careful when configuring OSPFv3 is also covered.
