8.10.8 IPv6 Neighbor Setup

Use this screen to create a static IPv6 neighbor entry in the Switch’s IPv6 neighbor table to store the

neighbor information permanently. Click the link next to IPv6 Neighbor Setup in the IPv6 Configuration

screen to display the screen as shown next.

LABEL DESCRIPTION

Interface Select the IPv6 interface you want to configure.

DAD Attempts The Switch uses Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) with neighbor solicitation and advertisement

messages to check whether an IPv6 address is already in use before assigning it to an interface,

such as the link-local address it creates through stateless address autoconfiguration.

Specify the number of consecutive neighbor solicitations (from 0 to 600) the Switch sends for this

interface. Enter 0 to turn off DAD.

NS Interval Specify the time interval (from 1000 to 3600000 milliseconds) at which neighbor solicitations are re-

sent for this interface.

Reachable

Time

Specify how long (from 1000 to 3600000 milliseconds) a neighbor is considered reachable for this

interface.

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.

Index This is the interface index number. Click on an index number to change the settings.

Interface This is the name of the IPv6 interface you created.

DAD Attempts This field displays the number of consecutive neighbor solicitations the Switch sends for this

interface.

NS Interval This field displays the time interval (in milliseconds) at which neighbor solicitations are re-sent for

this interface.

Reachable

Time

This field displays how long (in milliseconds) a neighbor is considered reachable for this interface.
