We have a lot to accomplish, but first since I did a “wr er” like a nerd I have to reconfigure all the IP addresses again (as you see in the Topology I changed them to make them a bit more intuitive).
One thing I wanted to point out while configuring this whole lab (and it’s painful to configure and remember all the addressing and formatting), I got this output on the Ethernet segment after I took one of the interfaces out of the Area # they were neighbors in:
R2(config-if)#
*Mar 1 20:45:38.645: %OSPFv3-4-AREA_MISMATCH: Received packet with incorrect area from FE80::20F:23FF:FE09:B180, FastEthernet0/0, area 0.0.0.0, packet area 0.0.0.23
R2(config-if)#
*Mar 1 20:45:48.645: %OSPFv3-4-AREA_MISMATCH: Received packet with incorrect area from FE80::20F:23FF:FE09:B180, FastEthernet0/0, area 0.0.0.0, packet area 0.0.0.23
So if that is seen, you may just need to adjust that interfaces area to resolve.
Now, I’ve been at this believe it or not for about an hour troubleshooting an issue, that was simply resolved because an interface was shut down on R4, so I am going to just put a halt here as I am mentally fried.
A couple things I wanted to point out, first I’d like to post the entire “sh run” of R3:
R3#sh run

So it’s basically the same, but those IPv6 addresses can be absolute brain murder to work with and configure when your tired. The only way I actually caught my issue before I entirely gave up, was through “debug ipv6 ospf pack” and noticed I wasn’t getting any.
That led to a “sh ip int bri” just to check if stuff is Up/Down or Down/Down, and sure enough Fa0/1 was Administratively down, and of course after a length of troubleshooting the answer was that easy.
Anyways, check it out:
R4#ping 2022::1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 2022::1, timeout is 2 seconds:

So I am able to ping across the world from R4 thus far, or the Area 34 / 0 world, I am not touching R1 tonight as I’d like to dig into Redistribution when I go there, however I’d like to see R3’s “sh ipv6 ospf” output which is surprisingly pretty little:

So next lab is finishing off the config with a quick config on S0/0 on R1, then move into Redistribution of IPv6 addresses, WOOOOOOOO!!! 😀
