The duplicate address detection feature verifies that a unicast IPv6 address is unique before it is assigned to a host interface by the
stateless auto configuration feature. Duplicate address detection uses neighbor solicitation messages to verify that a unicast IPv6
address is unique.
NOTE
For the stateless auto configuration feature to work properly, the advertised prefix length in switch advertisement messages
must always be 64 bits.
The IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration feature can also automatically reconfigure a host’s interfaces if you change the ISP for the host’s
network. (The host’s interfaces must be renumbered with the IPv6 prefix of the new ISP.)
The renumbering occurs in the following way: a switch on a local link periodically sends advertisements updated with the prefix of the
new ISP to all nodes on the link. (The advertisements still contain the prefix of the old ISP.) A host can use the addresses created from the
new prefix and the existing addresses created from the old prefix on the link. When you are ready for the host to use the new addresses
only, you can configure the lifetime parameters appropriately using the
ipv6 nd prefix-advertisement
command. During this transition,
the old prefix is removed from the switch advertisements. At this point, only addresses that contain the new prefix are used on the link.
Full Layer 3 IPv6 feature support
The following IPv6 Layer 3 features are supported only with the IPv6 Layer 3 PROM, Software-based Licensing, IPv6-series hardware,
and the full Layer 3 image:
•
OSPF V3
•
RIPng
•
IPv6 ICMP redirect messages
•
IPv6 route redistribution
•
IPv6 over IPv4 tunnels in hardware
•
IPv6 Layer 3 forwarding
•
BGP4+
•
IPv6 Multicast routing
•
DHCPv6 Relay Agent
NOTE
IPv6 static routes and IPv6 unicast routing (multicast routing is not supported) are not supported in the base Layer 3 software
images.
