There is a comment in the OSPF dissector code that says

 * At this time, this module is able to analyze OSPF
 * packets as specified in RFC2328. MOSPF (RFC1584) and other
 * OSPF Extensions which introduce new Packet types
 * (e.g the External Atributes LSA) are not supported.
 * Furthermore RFC2740 (OSPFv3 - OSPF for IPv6) is now supported
 *   - (c) 2001 Palle Lyckegaard <palle[AT]lyckegaard.dk>

If you are asking "Does Ethereal support OSPFv3?" because you're seeing
a problem with OSPFv3, rather than out of curiosity, please report the
problem to "ethereal-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxx" (not to me).
