As covered in the previous post, base configuration of a spine-and-leaf fabric is actually pretty simple. This will be pretty short, but we'll cover the conversion of the previously built fabric to OSPF.
Here's the updated diagram: (YAML). As we move to a more full-fledged implementation, we'll do dual-stack.
The cleanup for this is as follows:
no router rip
From here, we can configure the router statements on all devices. It can be the same for all, because of the summarization performed while planning out the network.
router ospf 1 ispf log-adjacency-changes nsf cisco network 10.6.0.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 network 10.6.240.0 0.0.1.255 area 0
In a production environment you should add passive-interface default on the leafs if the ToR does not peer dynamic routing with anything sub-tending it.
Unsurprisingly, this just works. Now, to setup IPv6!
ospf-s0#conf tEnter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.ospf-s0(config)#ipv6?% Unrecognized command
Well, it looks like IPv6 is not available until IOS 12.2.55. Let's use this network to upgrade it, by hooking up a TFTP server to leaf-1:
interface FastEthernet0/14 no switchport ip address 10.66.0.1 255.255.255.0!router ospf 1 network 10.66.0.1 0.0.0.0 area 0
We test reachability from the other leaf - this is a fully layer 3 switched path:
ospf-l0#ping 10.66.0.180Type escape sequence to abort.Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.66.0.180, timeout is 2 seconds:!!!!!Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/8 ms
And then we copy it over TFTP:
ospf-s1#copy tftp flash:Address or name of remote host []? 10.66.0.180Source filename []? c3560-ipservicesk9-mz.122-55.SE6.binDestination filename [c3560-ipservicesk9-mz.122-55.SE6.bin]?Accessing tftp://10.66.0.180/c3560-ipservicesk9-mz.122-55.SE6.bin...Loading c3560-ipservicesk9-mz.122-55.SE6.bin from 10.66.0.180 (via FastEthernet0/23): !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![OK - 12752912 bytes]12752912 bytes copied in 201.133 secs (63405 bytes/sec)
Note that this, while a practical application, is still non-redundant.
UPGRADING INTENSIFIES
Now to implement IPv6 as follows: (YAML)
Note: We used ; instead of : due to a feature issue with drawthe.net. We're using /126 prefixes because this is on older equipment, which may not support /127 prefixes reliably.
On all devices, we need to enable ipv6 routing / OSPFv3:
ipv6 unicast-routingipv6 router ospf 2 log-adjacency-changes
We then configure each device:
ospf-l0# configure terminalinterface Loopback0 ip address 10.6.0.0 255.255.255.255 ipv6 address FD00:6::/128 ipv6 ospf 2 area 0interface FastEthernet1/0/21 no switchport ip address 10.6.241.1 255.255.255.254 ipv6 address FD00:6:241::2/126 ipv6 enable ipv6 ospf 2 area 0interface FastEthernet1/0/24 no switchport ip address 10.6.240.1 255.255.255.254 ipv6 address FD00:6:240::2/126 ipv6 enable ipv6 ospf 2 area 0ospf-l1# configure terminalinterface Loopback0 ip address 10.6.0.1 255.255.255.255 ipv6 address FD00:6::1/128 ipv6 ospf 2 area 0interface FastEthernet0/22 no switchport ip address 10.6.240.3 255.255.255.254 ipv6 address FD00:6:240::6/126 ipv6 enable ipv6 ospf 2 area 0interface FastEthernet0/23 no switchport ip address 10.6.241.3 255.255.255.254 ipv6 address FD00:6:241::6/126 ipv6 enable ipv6 ospf 2 area 0ospf-s0# configure terminalinterface Loopback0 ip address 10.6.0.240 255.255.255.255 ipv6 address FD00:6::240/128 ipv6 ospf 2 area 0interface FastEthernet0/22 no switchport ip address 10.6.240.2 255.255.255.254 ipv6 address FD00:6:241::1/126 ipv6 enable ipv6 ospf 2 area 0interface FastEthernet0/24 no switchport ip address 10.6.240.0 255.255.255.254 ipv6 address FD00:6:240::1/126 ipv6 enable ipv6 ospf 2 area 0ospf-s1# configure terminalinterface Loopback0 ip address 10.6.0.241 255.255.255.255 ipv6 address FD00:6::241/128 ipv6 ospf 2 area 0interface FastEthernet0/21 no switchport ip address 10.6.241.0 255.255.255.254 ipv6 address FD00:6:241::1/126 ipv6 enable ipv6 ospf 2 area 0interface FastEthernet0/23 no switchport ip address 10.6.241.2 255.255.255.254 ipv6 address FD00:6:241::5/126 ipv6 enable ipv6 ospf 2 area 0
From here, we test by initiating traffic from a subtending network on Leaf-1 to Leaf-0, and checking the routing tables:

Note: technically we don't have to number the leaf-spine-leaf links in IPv6 with OSPFv3/RIP-ng/EIGRP, but that is a personal preference of mine to keep it consistent with future designs, and to allow for ease of troubleshooting.
As always, example configurations are here.
