Chapter 52 SAVI Configuration 
52.1 Introduction to SAVI 
SAVI  (Source  Address  Validation  Improvement)  is  a  security  authentication  method  that 
provides the granularity level of the node  source address. It gets the trust node information 
(such  as  port,  MAC  address  information),  namely,  anchor  information  by  monitoring  the 
interaction process of the relative protocol packets (such as ND protocol, DHCPv6 protocol) 
and  using  CPS  (Control  Packet  Snooping)  mechanism.  After  that,  it  binds  the  anchor 
information with the node source address and sends the corresponding filter rules, allow the 
packets which match the filter rules to pass only, so as to reach the aim that check the validity 
of node source address. 
SAVI function includes ND Snooping function, DHCPv6 Snooping function and RA Snooping 
according  to the  protocol  packet type. ND  Snooping function  is used  to detect  ND protocol 
packet, it sets IPv6 address binding obtained by nodes with the stateless address configuration. 
DHCPv6 Snooping function is used to detect DHCPv6 protocol packet, it sets IPv6 address 
binding  obtained  by  nodes  with  the  stateful  address  configuration.  RA  Snooping  function  is 
used to avoid the lawless node sending the spurious RA packet.
