Conguring the LPM Table for IPv6 Extended Prexes
The LPM CAM table consists of two partitions: Partition I for IPv6 /65-/128 route-prex entries and Partition II for IPv6 0/0-/64 and IPv4
0/0-0/32 route-prex entries. You must recongure LPM CAM to allow IPv6 /65-/128 route prexes to be stored in Partition I.
• Use the cam-ipv6 extended-prefix command to enable IPv6 /65-/128 route prexes to be stored in LPM CAM Partition 1. You
must specify the maximum number of IPv6 prexes with /65-/128 mask length that are supported in the partition. The valid values are
1024, 2048 or 3072 prexes. You must save the conguration and reload the switch for the change to take eect.
• The number of entries in Partition II is reduced as the number of entries in Partition I increases.
• To disable LPM CAM partitioning and return the number of the IPv6 /65-/128 route prexes stored in Partition 1 to 0, enter the no
cam-ipv6 extended-prefix
command.
• Use the show cam-ipv6 extended-prefix command to display the currently congured number of IPv6 /65-/128 prexes that
can be stored in LPM CAM Partition 1 and the number that are supported after the next switch reboot.
ICMPv6
ICMP for IPv6 (ICMPv6) combines the roles of ICMP, IGMP and ARP in IPv4. Like IPv4, it provides functions for reporting delivery and
forwarding errors, and provides a simple echo service for troubleshooting. The implementation of ICMPv6 is based on RFC 4443.
ICMPv6 uses two message types:
• Error reporting messages indicate when the forwarding or delivery of the packet failed at the destination or intermediate node. These
messages include Destination Unreachable, Packet Too Big, Time Exceeded and Parameter Problem messages.
