Applying IPsec policies for OSPFv3

To protect routing information and defend attacks, OSPFv3 can authenticate protocol packets by using
an IPsec policy.
Outbound OSPFv3 packets carry the Security Parameter Index (SPI) defined in the relevant IPsec policy.

A device uses the SPI carried in a received packet to match against the configured IPsec policy. If they

match, the device accepts the packet; otherwise, it discards the packet and will not establish a neighbor
relationship with the sending device.
You can configure an IPsec policy for an area, an interface or a virtual link.

To implement area-based IPsec protection, you need to configure the same IPsec policy on the
routers in the target area.

To implement interface-based IPsec protection, you need to configure the same IPsec policy on the
interfaces between two neighboring routers.

To implement virtual link-based IPsec protection, you need to configure the same IPsec policy on the
two routers connected over the virtual link.

If an interface and its area each have an IPsec policy configured, the interface uses its own IPsec policy.

If a virtual link and area 0 each have an IPsec policy configured, the virtual link uses its own IPsec policy.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you apply an IPsec policy for OSPFv3, complete following tasks.

Create an IPsec proposal.

Create an IPsec policy.

For more information about IPsec policy configuration, see VPN Configuration Guide.

Configuration guidelines

An IPsec policy used for OSPFv3 can only be in manual mode. For more information, see VPN
