Juniper IGP - CONFIGURATION GUIDE V11.1.X, Configuration Manual

Page: 219 / 454

NOTE: IPv6 Neighbor Discovery is fully supported when configured on broadcast
interfaces. IPv6 neighbor discovery supports only router advertisement characteristics
when configured on PPP interfaces.
Configuring Neighbor Discovery
To configure Neighbor Discovery:
1.
Access an IPv6 interface.
host1(config)# interface fastEthernet 3/0
host1(config-if)#
2.
Configure the current IPv6 interface to send neighbor solicitations and to respond
with neighbor advertisements.
host1(config)# ipv6 nd
NOTE: This command is redundant when configuring Neighbor Discovery over
Ethernet, because router advertisements are automatically sent on Ethernet interfaces.
However, unless explicitly enabled, IPv6 router advertisements are not sent on other
types of interfaces.
3.
(Optional) Configure the interface to retry sending neighbor solicitations using
a specified interval.
host1(config-if)# ipv6 nd ns-interval 500
4.
(Optional) Configure the interface to assume that a neighbor is reachable for a
specified time after a reachable confirmation event.
host1(config-if)# ipv6 nd reachable-time 30000
5.
(Optional) Configure the interface to suppress router advertisements, as well as
replies to router solicitations.
host1(config-if)# ipv6 nd suppress-ra
6.
(Optional) Configure the interface to suppresses the source link-layer option in
IPv6 router advertisement transmissions. This action forces neighbors to solicit
the router link layer explicitly, and may prove necessary when enabling inbound
load sharing across multiple link-layer addresses.
host1(config-if)# ipv6 nd suppress-ra-source-link-layer
7.
(Optional) Configure the interface to send router advertisements at a specified
interval.
host1(config-if)# ipv6 nd ra-interval 500
8.
(Optional) Configure the router advertisement lifetime in seconds.
