Hello,
after upgrade to 25.7, my Frr OSPF3 (v6) instance stops working.

I've noticed during boot and if I type "service frr restart" daemon tells me configuration syntax is wrong after specifing area on interface.
I tested renaming frr.conf in frr.conf.old and regenerate configuration but issue still persist.

Ospf v4 still working fine as usual.

Does somebody noticed same behavior?

There was an frr8 to frr10 upgrade.

Best would be an issue here and how to replicate it.

If its clear whats going on Ill pick it up and fix it soon.

Hi,

The problem is that the script is not adding the area to the interface.

The correct configuration should be:

interface bxe0
...
   ipv6 ospf6 area 0.0.0.0
...
exit


It seems for OSPFv2 (IPv4) the built syntax is correct, and operational
