OSPFv3

OSPFv3 routing protocol configuration parameter differences between legacy and advanced routing engine.
There are parameter setting differences between legacy and advanced routing engines when configuring OSPFv3 settings.

Route Redistribution

OSPFv3 handles route redistribution to another routing protocol differently in the legacy and advanced routing engines. When redistributing from OSPFv3, filters are based on a variety of criteria.
Migration Exception: The advanced routing engine does not allow redistribution of routes based on Link State Advertisement (LSA) type (external-1, external-2, inter-area, or intra-area) or origin area. You can, however, use prefixes and tags associated with LSA updates.

Authentication Profile

Migration Exception: In the advanced routing engine, the authentication profile variables are retained globally for reuse which can cause an issue with the Security Policy Index (SPI). The advanced routing engine does not allow multiple interface authentication profiles within a single virtual system (vsys) to share the same SPI value.
