3.4.6 Configuring Other Information to Be Advertised
A router advertisement message carries information such as the maximum number of hops,
prefix option, neighbor hold time, and keepalive time.
Context
Duplicate Address Detect (DAD) is a process of IPv6 automatic address configuration. You can
configure the number of DAD messages which are sent continuously.
Set the interval of sending Neighbor Solicitation (NS) messages on the device. By default, NS
re-transmitting time interval is 1000ms.
Neighbor Unreachability Detection (NUD) checks the reachability of neighbors. By default,
NUD value is 30000ms.
The MTU of the interface determines whether to fragment IP packets on the interface. Default
MTUs vary with interface types. The MTU on an Ethernet defaults to be 1500 bytes.
Procedure
Step 1
Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2
Run:
ipv6 nd hop-limit
limit
ND hop limit is configured.
The value of
limit
ranges from 1 to 255. By default, it is 64.
Step 3
Run:
interface
interface-type interface-number
The interface view is displayed.
Step 4
Run:
ipv6 nd ra hop-limit
limit
ND hop limit is configured.
The value of
limit
ranges from 0 to 255. By default, it is 64.
NOTE
l
If the
ipv6 nd ra hop-limit
command has been run on an interface, the hop limit for an RA message
uses the value configured on the interface.
l
If the
ipv6 nd ra hop-limit
command has not been run on an interface, the hop limit for an RA message
uses the value configured globally, that is, the value configured in the
ipv6 nd hop-limit
command.
Step 5
Run:
ipv6 nd ra router-lifetime
ra-lifetime
The life duration of RA messages is configured.
