Figure 54. NDP Router Redirect
IPv6 Neighbor Discovery of MTU Packets
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.
Dell Networking OS 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 Dell Networking OS Command Line 
Interface Reference Guide.
