•
Stale
— The default gateway is no longer known to be reachable
but until traffic is sent to the default gateway, no attempt is made
to verify its reachability.
•
Delay
— The default gateway is no longer known to be reachable,
and traffic has recently been sent to the default gateway. Rather
than probe the default gateway 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 default gateway is no longer known to be reachable,
and Unicast Neighbor Solicitation probes are being sent to verify
reachability.
•
Unreachable
— No reachability confirmation was received.
–
Metric
— (In Layer 2+) Cost of this hop.

To add an IPv6 default gateway, click
Edit, Add,
and enter the fields:
–
IPv6 Address Type
— Displays that the IP address was added to the
interface through a link local address.
–
Link Local Interface
— Displays the outgoing interface through
which the default gateway can be reached.
–
Default Gateway IPv6 Address
— Enter the Link Local IPv6 address
of the default gateway.
–
Metric
— Enter the cost of this hop.
NOTE:
When defining a default gateway interface, ensure that the interface is in
Layer 2+ mode (on devices supporting a separate Layer 2 mode). This can be done
IPv6 Neighbors
The IPv6 Neighbors feature is similar in functionality to the IPv4 Address
Resolution Protocol (ARP) feature. It enables detecting Link Local addresses
within the same subnet, and includes a database for maintaining reachability
information about active neighbors.
The device supports a total of up to 64 neighbors, obtained statically or
dynamically.
When removing an IPv6 interface, all neighbors entered statically or learned
dynamically, are removed.
