The previously-defined neighbors are displayed along with their states.
The possible states are:
–
Incomplete
— An address resolution is in progress, and the link-layer
address of the neighbor has not yet been determined.
–
Reachable
— The neighbor is known to have been reachable recently
(within tens of seconds).
–
Stale
— The neighbor is no longer known to be reachable, but until
traffic is sent to the neighbor, no attempt is made to verify its
reachability.
–
Delay
— The neighbor is no longer known to be reachable, and traffic
has recently been sent to the neighbor. Rather than probe the
neighbor immediately, however, there is a delay sending probes for a
short while, in order to give upper-layer protocols a chance to provide
reachability confirmation.
–
Probe
— The neighbor is no longer known to be reachable, and
Unicast Neighbor Solicitation probes are being sent to verify
reachability.
