OSPFv3 lab verification checklist

Concepts • Procedure • Verification • Troubleshooting

Last updated: YYYY-MM-DD • Category: Concepts

A short checklist to validate OSPFv3 adjacency, routing, and reachability in a lab environment.

Environment / assumptions

  • IPs anonymized (e.g., 10.0.x.0/30, fd00:xxxx::/64)
  • Simulated environment for demonstration (not production)

Procedure

  1. Typed show ipv6 ospf neighbor to confirm adjacency states.
  2. Typed show ipv6 route to confirm expected prefixes appear.
  3. Typed ping6 <target> from multiple segments to validate end-to-end reachability.
  4. Typed show ipv6 ospf database to confirm LSA presence (as applicable).

Verification

  • List the outputs that prove success.
  • Include command outputs (anonymized) when possible.
