Figure 55. NDP Router Redirect
IPv6 Neighbor Discovery of MTU Packets
With FTOS version 8.3.1.0, you can set the MTU advertised through the RA packets to incoming routers, without altering
the actual MTU setting on the interface.
The ipv6 nd mtu command sets the value advertised to routers. It does not set the actual MTU rate. For example, if
you set
ipv6 nd mtu to 1280, the interface still passes 1500-byte packets, if that is what is set with the mtu
command.
Secure Shell (SSH) Over an IPv6 Transport
IPv6 secure shell (SSH) is supported on the S4820T platform.
FTOS supports both inbound and outbound SSH sessions using IPv6 addressing. Inbound SSH supports accessing the
system through the management interface as well as through a physical Layer 3 interface.
For SSH configuration details, refer to the
Security
chapter in the
FTOS Command Line Interface Reference Guide
.
