set protocols ospf6 instance-id

set protocols ospf6 instance-id

Every interface is assigned an Instance ID. This should default to 0. It is only necessary to assign a value other than 0 on those links that will contain multiple separate communities of OSPF routers. For example, suppose that there are two communities of routers on a given ethernet segment that users wish to keep separate. The first community is assigned an Instance ID of 0 and all the routers in the first community will be assigned 0 as the Instance ID for interfaces connected to the ethernet segment. An Instance ID of 1 is assigned to the other routers' interfaces connected to the ethernet segment.
