Disabling OSPFv3 Graceful Restart Helper

The OSPFv3 graceful restart (GR) helper is enabled by default, and can be disabled on a routing device.
  1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
    device# configure terminal
  2. Enter the ipv6 router ospf command to enter OSPFv3 router configuration mode and enable OSPFv3 globally.
    device(config)# ipv6 router ospf
  3. Enter the no graceful-restart helper command with the strict-lsa-checking option to disable the GR helper with strict link-state advertisement (LSA) checking.
    device(config-ospf6-router)# no graceful-restart helper strict-lsa-checking

The following example disables the GR helper with strict link-state advertisement (LSA) checking.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# ipv6 router ospf 
device(config-ospf6-router)# no graceful-restart helper strict-lsa-checking
