Configuring IPv6 Neighbor Entries

Description

You can add and delete entries in the Gaia IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (NDP) table.

Note - You can add or delete Neighbor entries only from the Gaia Clish.

Important:

First, you must enable the IPv6 Support and reboot (see System Configuration).
On Scalable Platforms (ElasticXL, Maestro, and Chassis), you must run the applicable commands in Gaia gClish of the applicable Security Group.
After you add, configure, or delete features, run the "save config" command to save the settings permanently. Scalable Platforms save the changes automatically.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`dynamic-table`	Shows the table with dynamic neighbor discovery entries.
`interface-table`	Shows the table with interface that discovered neighbors.
`parameters`	Shows the IPv6 Neighbor parameter values (if you changed the default values).
`static-table`	Shows the table with static neighbor discovery entries.
`table`	Shows the table with all neighbor discovery entries - dynamic, static, and interfaces that discovered these neighbors.

Syntax

duplicate-detection retry <1-100>

duplicate-detection state {on | off}

multicast-limit <1-100>

queue-limit <1-3>

unicast-limit <1-100>

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`duplicate-detection retry <1-100>`	Configures the number of times to retry Duplicate Address Detection Neighbor Discovery requests.
`duplicate-detection state {on \| off}`	Enables (`on)` and disables (`off`) the IPv6 duplicate address detection.
`multicast-limit <1-100>`	Configures the number of times to retry Multicast Neighbor Discovery requests. Default: 3.
`queue-limit <1-3>`	Configures the maximum number of output packets to be queued while resolving a link-layer destination address. Default: 1.
`unicast-limit <1-100>`	Configures the number of times to retry Unicast Neighbor Discovery requests. Default: 3.
