Introduction to OSPFv3
Open Shortest Path First version 3 (OSPFv3) supports IPv6 and complies with RFC 2740 (OSPF for IPv6).
OSPFv3 and OSPFv2 have the following similarities:
• 32 bits router ID and area ID
• Packets, including Hello, DD (Data Description), LSR (Link State Request), LSU (Link State Update),
LSAck (Link State Acknowledgment)
• Mechanism for finding neighbors and establishing adjacencies
• Mechanism for LSA flooding and aging
OSPFv3 and OSPFv2 have the following differences:
• OSPFv3 runs on a per-link basis, instead of on a per-IP-subnet basis.
• OSPFv3 supports multiple instances per link.
• OSPFv3 identifies neighbors by Router ID, and OSPFv2 by IP address.
