IPv6 neighbor cache management using EDM

Use the information in this section to view and configure the IPv6 neighbor cache.

Viewing the IPv6 neighbor cache using EDM

View the neighbor cache to discover information about neighbors in your network. Neighbor
cache in IPv6 is similar to the IPv4 Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table. The neighbor
cache is a set of entries for individual neighbors to which traffic was sent recently. You make
entries on the neighbor on-link unicast IP address, including information such as the link-layer
address. A neighbor cache entry contains information used by the Neighbor Unreachability
Detection algorithm, including the reachability state, the number of unanswered probes, and
the time the next Neighbor Unreachability Detection event is scheduled.
Procedure steps

interface identified by a particular value of
this index is the same interface as identified
by the same value of ifIndex.
Used to create or delete entries.
Value
