OSPFv3 in ROSv7 Between ROSv6

gozfly · Sun Jul 09, 2023 9:22 am

OSPF version 2 runs great between the two routers regardless of router version
The problem started when configuring ospfv3 on two routers, one ros6 and the other rosv7. Doesn't find its neighbors on IPv6.

Any idea what I'm missing?

Problem solved.

After a few hours observing the behavior of the packets in the OSPF protocol with the packet sniffer, I noticed that the InstanceID header had a different value due to this detail, the two routers did not know each other in IPv6.

The problem only occurred because this "InstanceID" header only exists in OSPFv3.

The solution to our problem was modify the interface to use the instance (1) in the AGG01(ROSv6) Router.

This way both sides have the same InstanceID value and are discovered.
