 Manual Neighbor Configuration
 -----------------------------
 
-OSPF routing devices normally discover their neighbors dynamically by listening to the broadcast
-or multicast hello packets on the network. Because an NBMA network does not support broadcast (or
-multicast), the device cannot discover its neighbors dynamically, so you must configure all the
-neighbors statically.

 OSPFv3 (IPv6)
 #############
 
+General Configuration
+---------------------
+
+VyOS does not have a special command to start the OSPFv3 process. The OSPFv3
+process starts when the first ospf enabled interface is configured.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set protocols ospfv3 area <number> interface <interface>
+
+   This command specifies the OSPFv3 enabled interface. This command is also
+   used to enable the OSPF process. The area number can be specified in
+   decimal notation in the range from 0 to 4294967295. Or it can be specified
+   in dotted decimal notation similar to ip address.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set protocols ospfv3 parameters router-id <rid>
+
+   This command sets the router-ID of the OSPFv3 process. The router-ID may be
+   an IP address of the router, but need not be – it can be any arbitrary
+   32bit number. However it MUST be unique within the entire OSPFv3 domain to
+   the OSPFv3 speaker – bad things will happen if multiple OSPFv3 speakers are
+   configured with the same router-ID!
+
+
+Optional Configuration
+----------------------
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set protocols ospfv3 distance global <distance>
+
+   This command change distance value of OSPFv3 globally.
+   The distance range is 1 to 255.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set protocols ospfv3 distance ospfv3 
+   <external|inter-area|intra-area> <distance>
+
+   This command change distance value of OSPFv3. The arguments are the
+   distance values for external routes, inter-area routes and intra-area
+   routes respectively. The distance range is 1 to 255.
+
+
+Areas Configuration
+-------------------
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set protocols ospfv3 area <number> range <prefix>
+
+   This command summarizes intra area paths from specified area into one
+   Type-3 Inter-Area Prefix LSA announced to other areas. This command can be
+   used only in ABR.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set protocols ospfv3 area <number> range <prefix> not-advertise
+
+   This command instead of summarizing intra area paths filter them - i.e.
+   intra area paths from this range are not advertised into other areas. This
+   command makes sense in ABR only.
+
+
+Interfaces Configuration
+------------------------
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces <inttype> <intname> ipv6 ospfv3 cost <number>
+
+   This command sets link cost for the specified interface. The cost value is
+   set to router-LSA’s metric field and used for SPF calculation. The cost
+   range is 1 to 65535.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces <inttype> <intname> ipv6 ospfv3 dead-interval
+   <number>
+
+   Set number of seconds for router Dead Interval timer value used for Wait
+   Timer and Inactivity Timer. This value must be the same for all routers
+   attached to a common network. The default value is 40 seconds. The
+   interval range is 1 to 65535.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces <inttype> <intname> ipv6 ospfv3 hello-interval
+   <number>
+
+   Set number of seconds for Hello Interval timer value. Setting this value,
+   Hello packet will be sent every timer value seconds on the specified
+   interface. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a
+   common network. The default value is 10 seconds. The interval range is 1
+   to 65535.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces <inttype> <intname> ipv6 ospfv3 mtu-ignore
+
+   This command disables check of the MTU value in the OSPF DBD packets.
+   Thus, use of this command allows the OSPF adjacency to reach the FULL
+   state even though there is an interface MTU mismatch between two OSPF
+   routers.
+   
+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces <inttype> <intname> ipv6 ospfv3 network <type>
+
+   This command allows to specify the distribution type for the network
+   connected to this interface:
+
+   **broadcast** – broadcast IP addresses distribution.
+   **point-to-point** – address distribution in point-to-point networks.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces <inttype> <intname> ipv6 ospfv3 priority <number>
+
+   This command sets Router Priority integer value. The router with the
+   highest priority will be more eligible to become Designated Router.
+   Setting the value to 0, makes the router ineligible to become Designated
+   Router. The default value is 1. The interval range is 0 to 255.
+   
+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces <inttype> <intname> ipv6 ospfv3 passive
+
+   This command specifies interface as passive. Passive interface advertises
+   its address, but does not run the OSPF protocol (adjacencies are not formed
+   and hello packets are not generated).
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces <inttype> <intname> ipv6 ospfv3 retransmit-interval
+   <number>
+
+   This command sets number of seconds for RxmtInterval timer value. This
+   value is used when retransmitting Database Description and Link State
+   Request packets if acknowledge was not received. The default value is 5
+   seconds. The interval range is 3 to 65535.
+   
+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces <inttype> <intname> ipv6 ospfv3 transmit-delay
+   <number>
+
+   This command sets number of seconds for InfTransDelay value. It allows to
+   set and adjust for each interface the delay interval before starting the
+   synchronizing process of the router's database with all neighbors. The
+   default value is 1 seconds. The interval range is 3 to 65535.

+
+.. cfgcmd:: set protocols ospfv3 redistribute <route source>
