parameter with this command to disable RA Guard for a specified
device port.
Syntax
ipv6 nd raguard
no ipv6 nd raguard
Default
RA Guard is not enabled by default.
Mode
Interface Configuration for a device port interface.
Usage
Router Advertisements (RAs) are used by Routers to announce themselves on the
link. Applying RA Guard to a device port disallows Router Advertisements and
redirect messages. RA Guard blocks RAs from untrusted hosts. Blocking RAs stops
untrusted hosts from flooding malicious RAs and stops any misconfigured hosts
from disrupting traffic on the local network.
Enabling RA Guard on a port blocks RAs from a connected host and indicates the
port and host are untrusted. Disabling RA Guard on a port allows RAs from a
connected host and indicates the port and host are trusted. Ports and hosts are
trusted by default to allow RAs.
Example
To enable RA Guard on device ports
port1.0.2-1.0.12
, use the following
commands:
awplus#
configure terminal
awplus(config)#
interface port1.0.2-1.0.12
awplus(config-if)#
ipv6 nd raguard
To verify RA Guard is enabled on device port interface
port1.0.2
, use the
command:
awplus#
show running-config interface port1.0.2
To disable RA Guard on device ports
port1.0.2-1.0.12
, use the following
commands:
awplus#
configure terminal
awplus(config)#
interface port1.0.2-port1.0.12
awplus(config-if)#
no ipv6 nd raguard
When RA Guard is disabled on a device port it is not displayed in
show
running-config
output.
