R0106-HP MSR Router Series Layer 3 - IP Services Command Reference(V7)
288
Usage guidelines
After the path MTU from a source host to a destination host is dynamically determined, the source host
sends subsequent packets to the destination host based on this MTU. After the aging time expires:
• The dynamic Path MTU is removed.
• The source host re-determines a dynamic path MTU through the Path MTU mechanism.
The aging time is invalid for a static Path MTU.
Examples
# Set the aging time for a dynamic Path MTU to 40 minutes.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ipv6 pathmtu age 40

display ipv6 pathmtu
ipv6 prefer temporary-address
Use ipv6 prefer temporary-address to enable the system to preferentially use the temporary IPv6 address
of the sending interface as the source address of a packet.
Use undo ipv6 prefer temporary-address to restore the default.
Syntax
ipv6 prefer temporary-address
undo ipv6 prefer temporary-address
Default
The system does not preferentially use the temporary IPv6 address of the sending interface as the source
address of a packet.
Views

Predefined user roles

Usage guidelines
The temporary address function enables the system to generate and preferentially use the temporary IPv6
address of the sending interface as the source address of a packet. If the temporary IPv6 address cannot
be used because of a DAD conflict, the system uses the public IPv6 address.
Examples
# Enable the system to preferentially use the temporary IPv6 address of the sending interface as the
source address of the packet.
