LABEL DESCRIPTION
IPv6 Hop Limit Specify the maximum number of hops (from 1 to 255) in router advertisements. This
is the maximum number of hops on which an IPv6 packet is allowed to transmit before
it is discarded by an IPv6 router, which is similar to the TTL field in IPv4.
ICMPv6 Rate Limit
Bucket Size
Specify the maximum number of ICMPv6 error messages (from 1 to 200) which are
allowed to transmit in a given time interval. If the bucket is full, subsequent error
messages are suppressed.
ICMPv6 Rate Limit
Error Interval
Specify the time period (from 0 to 2147483647 milliseconds) during which ICMPv6
error messages of up to the bucket size can be transmitted. 0 means no limit.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses
these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top
navigation panel to save your changes to the nonvolatile memory when you are done
configuring.
Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
Clear Click Clear to reset the fields to the factory defaults.
