Troubleshooting OSPFv3
The Dell Networking OS has several tools to make troubleshooting easier. Consider the following
information as these are typical issues that interrupt the OSPFv3 process.
NOTE: The following troubleshooting section is not meant to be a comprehensive list, only
examples of typical troubleshooting checks.
• Have you enabled OSPF globally?
• Is the OSPF process active on the interface?
• Are the adjacencies established correctly?
• Did you configure the interfaces for Layer 3 correctly?
• Is the router in the correct area type?
• Did you include the routes in the OSPF database?
• Did you include the OSPF routes in the routing table (not just the OSPF database)?
Some useful troubleshooting commands are:
• show ipv6 interfaces
• show ipv6 protocols
• debug ipv6 ospf events and/or packets
• show ipv6 neighbors
• show virtual links
• show ipv6 routes
Viewing Summary Information
To get general route, configuration, links status, and debug information, use the following commands.
• View the summary information of the IPv6 routes.
EXEC Privilege mode
show ipv6 route summary
• View the summary information for the OSPFv3 database.
EXEC Privilege mode
show ipv6 ospf database
• View the configuration of OSPFv3 neighbors.
EXEC Privilege mode
show ipv6 ospf neighbor
• View debug messages for all OSPFv3 interfaces.
EXEC Privilege mode
debug ipv6 ospf [event | packet] {type slot/port}
– event: View OSPF event messages.
