Run the command set protocols ospfv3 ospf6 capability opaque to enable the capability to generate Opaque LSAs in the OSPFv3 process, allowing the OSPFv3 process to generate Opaque LSAs and receive them from neighboring devices. Optional parameter vrf can be used to specify a VRF, if no VRF is specified the command takes effect on the default VRF. Optional parameter instance-id can be included to specify the OSPFv2 OSPFv3 multi-instance ID in the default VRF.

Opaque LSAs provide a generic mechanism for OSPFv3 extensions, supporting the OSPFv3 Graceful Restart (GR) feature through Type 9 LSAs. Therefore, before configuring OSPFv3 GR, you must enable OSPF's Opaque LSA capability using this command.
Example
