Maximum Router Advertisement Interval
—Enter the maximum amount of time that
can pass between router advertisements.
The interval between transmissions should be less than or equal to the IPv6 router
advertisement lifetime if you configure the route as a default router by using this command.
To prevent synchronization with other IPv6 nodes, the actual interval used is randomly
selected from a value between the minimum and maximum values.
•
Minimum Router Advertisement Interval
