With ARP, each node broadcasts ARP requests on the entire link. This approach causes unnecessary processing by uninterested nodes.
With NDP, each node sends a request only to the intended destination via a multicast address with the unicast address used as the last 24
bits. Other hosts on the link do not participate in the process, greatly increasing network bandwidth efficiency.

IPv6 Neighbor Discovery of MTU Packets
You can set the MTU advertised through the RA packets to incoming routers, without altering the actual MTU setting on the interface.
The
ipv6 nd mtu
command sets the value advertised to routers. It does not set the actual MTU rate. For example, if you set
ipv6 nd
mtu
to 1280, the interface still passes 1500-byte packets, if that is what is set with the
mtu
command.
Configuration Task List for IPv6 RDNSS
This section describes how to configure the IPv6 Recursive DNS Server.
This sections contains the following configuration task list for IPv6 RDNSS:
•
Configuring the IPv6 Recursive DNS Server
•
Debugging IPv6 RDNSS Information Sent to the Host
•
Displaying IPv6 RDNSS Information
Configuring the IPv6 Recursive DNS Server
You can configure up to four Recursive DNS Server (RDNSS) addresses to be distributed via IPv6 router advertisements to an IPv6 device,
using the
ipv6 nd dns-server
ipv6-RDNSS-address
{
lifetime
| infinite}
command in INTERFACE CONFIG mode.
The lifetime parameter configures the amount of time the IPv6 host can use the IPv6 RDNSS address for name resolution. The lifetime
range is
0
to
4294967295
seconds. When the maximum lifetime value,
4294967295
, or the
infinite
keyword is specified, the
lifetime to use the RDNSS address does not expire. A value of
0
indicates to the host that the RDNSS address should not be used. You
must specify a lifetime using the lifetime or infinite parameter.
