Step 3: Create the Areas and Backbone
Now the areas should be created. In this case, we will create an area for each router, and a backbone (area
0.0.0.0) that connects the areas.
The commands for this step are below:
Router 1
-> ipv6 ospf area 0.0.0.0
-> ipv6 ospf area 0.0.0.1
These commands created and enabled area 0.0.0.0 (the backbone) and area 0.0.0.1 (the area for Router 1).
Router 2
-> ipv6 ospf area 0.0.0.0
-> ipv6 ospf area 0.0.0.2
These commands created and enabled Area 0.0.0.0 (the backbone) and Area 0.0.0.2 (the area for Router
2).
Router 3
-> ipv6 ospf area 0.0.0.0
-> ipv6 ospf area 0.0.0.3
These commands created and enabled Area 0.0.0.0 (the backbone) and Area 0.0.0.3 (the area for Router
3).
Step 4: Create, Enable, and Assign Interfaces
Next, OSPFv3 interfaces must be created, enabled, and assigned to the areas. The OSPFv3 interfaces
should have the same interface name as the IPv6 router interfaces created above in “Step 1: Prepare the
Routers” on page 2-26.
Router 1
-> ipv6 ospf interface vlan-31 area 0.0.0.0
-> ipv6 ospf interface vlan-12 area 0.0.0.0
-> ipv6 ospf interface vlan-10 area 0.0.0.1
IPv6 router interface vlan-31 was associated with OSPFv3 interface vlan-31, enabled, and assigned to the
backbone. IPv6 router interface vlan-12 was associated with OSPFv3 interface vlan-12, enabled, and
assigned to the backbone. IPv6 router interface vlan-10, which connects to end stations and attached
network devices, was associated with OSPFv3 interface vlan-10, enabled, and assigned to Area 0.0.0.1.
Router 2
-> ipv6 ospf interface vlan-12 area 0.0.0.0
-> ipv6 ospf interface vlan-23 area 0.0.0.0
-> ipv6 ospf interface vlan-20 area 0.0.0.2
