Defining IPv6 Neighbors Information

The IPv6 Neighbors page enables configuring and viewing the list of IPv6 neighbors on the IPv6 interface.
The IPv6 Neighbor Table (also known as IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Cache) displays the MAC addresses of
the IPv6 neighbors that are in the same IPv6 subnet as the device. This is the IPv6 equivalent of the IPv4
ARP Table. When the device needs to communicate with its neighbors, the device uses the IPv6 Neighbor
Table to determine the MAC addresses based on their IPv6 addresses.
This page displays the neighbors that were automatically detected or manually configured entries. Each
entry displays to which interface the neighbor is connected, the neighbor's IPv6 and MAC addresses, the
entry type (static or dynamic), and the state of the neighbor.
To define IPv6 neighbors:
STEP 1
You can select a Clear Table option to clear some or all of IPv6 addresses in the IPv6 Neighbors Table.
• Static Only—Deletes the static IPv6 address entries.
• Dynamic Only—Deletes the dynamic IPv6 address entries.
• All Dynamic & Static—Deletes the static and dynamic address entries IPv6 address entries.
The following fields are displayed for the neighboring interfaces:
• Interface—Neighboring IPv6 interface type.
• IPv6 Address—IPv6 address of a neighbor.
• MAC Address—MAC address mapped to the specified IPv6 address.
• Type—Neighbor discovery cache information entry type (static or dynamic).
• State—Specifies the IPv6 neighbor status. The values are:
Incomplete
-
Reachable
- —Neighbor is known to be reachable.
