Page 23: Neighbor Discovery
Neighbor discovery Important: ICMPv6 plays an important role in IPv6 features such as neighbor discovery, Multicast Listener Discovery, and path MTU discovery. Neighbor discovery IPv6 nodes (routers and hosts) on the same link use neighbor discovery (ND) to discover link layer addresses and to obtain and advertise various network parameters and reachability information.

Page 27: Router Discovery
IPv6 and the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 Router discovery IPv6 nodes discover routers on the local link with router discovery. The IPv6 router discovery process uses the following messages: • Router advertisement on page 27 • Router solicitation on page 27 Router advertisement Configured interfaces on an IPv6 router send out router-advertisement messages.
Page 28: Management Access
Due to this combination of features, the mechanism supports the autoconfiguration of host entities. IPv6 requires installed R or RS modules in the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 chassis. IPv6 also requires at least one 8692 SF/CPU Enterprise Enhanced SF/CPU with SuperMezz or at least one 8895 SF/CPU (no SuperMezz is required on the 8895 SF/CPU).
Page 29: Host Autoconfiguration
Host autoconfiguration Host autoconfiguration The Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 can automatically configure a host (node), and assign addresses automatically. Stateless autoconfiguration enables serverless basic configuration of IPv6 nodes and renumbering from a mathematical perspective. Stateless autoconfiguration = network prefix (router advertisement) + IPv6 Interface Identifiers.
Page 30: Ipv6 Vlans And Brouter Ports
IPv6 VLANs and brouter ports The Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 supports three logical types of interfaces that participate in the IPv6 routing arena: • Virtual LAN interface: Release 4.1 supports port-based VLANs and protocol-based VLANs.
Page 31: Path Mtu Discovery
Path MTU discovery Path MTU discovery IPv6 routers do not fragment packets. The source node sends a packet equal in size to the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the link layer. The packet travels through the network to the source. If the packet encounters a link to a smaller MTU, the router sends the source node an ICMP error message containing the MTU size of the next link.
Page 32: Virtual Routing Between Vlans
VLAN. Brouter ports The Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 also supports brouter ports. A brouter port is a single-port VLAN that can route IP packets and bridge all nonroutable traffic. The difference between a brouter port and a standard protocol-based VLAN configured for routing is that the routing interface of the brouter port is not subject to the spanning tree state of the port.
Page 33: Static Routes
Routing port can be in the blocking state for nonroutable traffic while it routes IP traffic. This feature removes interruptions caused by Spanning Tree Protocol recalculations in routed traffic. A brouter port is a one-port VLAN; therefore, each brouter port decreases the number of available VLANs by one and uses one VLAN ID.
Page 34 IPv6 routing fundamentals Action Result Deleting a VLAN Removes static routes with a local next-hop option from the configuration database. Static routes with a nonlocal next-hop option become inactive (they are removed from the forwarding database). Disabling forwarding on a VLAN or brouter Static routes reachable through the locally port attached network become inactive.
Page 35 Routing IP static route table The static route table is separate from the system routing table that the router uses to make forwarding decisions. Use the static route table to directly change static routes. Although the tables are separate, the system routing table automatically reflects the static routing table manager entries if the next hop address in the static route is reachable and if the static route is enabled.
Page 36: Open Shortest Path First Protocol
IPv6 routing fundamentals adding the black hole route a check is made to ensure that no other static route to that identical destination in an enabled state exists. If such a route exists, you cannot add the black hole route, and the system generates an error message. However, if an enabled-black hole route exists, you cannot add another static route to that destination.
Page 37 Routing From the topological database, each router constructs a shortest-path tree, with itself as the root. The shortest-path tree provides the optimal route to each destination in the AS. Routing information from outside the AS appears on the tree as leaves. OSPF routes IP traffic based solely on the destination IP address and the prefix in the IP packet header.

Page 39 Routing On a broadcast or point-to-point network, the Hello Protocol dynamically discovers neighbors. On a nonbroadcast multiaccess network (NBMA), you must manually configure neighbors for the network. The Hello Protocol provides bidirectional communication between neighbors. Periodically, OSPF routers send hello packets over all interfaces. These hello packets include the following information: •...
Page 40: Ospf Routers
IPv6 routing fundamentals Important: If a router receives a hello packet from a neighbor with a priority different from the configured priority, the router automatically changes the configured priority to match the dynamically learned priority. OSPF routers To limit the amount of routing protocol traffic, the Hello Protocol elects a designated router (DR) and a backup designated router (BDR) on each multiaccess network.
Page 41: Ospf Interfaces
(DR) and becomes the DR if required. OSPF interfaces An OSPF interface, or link, is configured on an IP interface. In the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600, an IP interface can be a single link (brouter port) or a logical interface configured on a VLAN (multiple ports).
Page 42 IPv6 routing fundamentals Designated router parameters OSPF treats an NBMA network like a broadcast network. Because many routers attach to the network, OSPF designates a router (DR) to generate the network link-state advertisements. Because the NBMA network does not broadcast, you must manually configure neighbors for each router eligible to become the DR (those with a positive, nonzero router priority).
Page 43: Ospf Packets
Routing the designated PollInterval, for example, every 120 seconds. Otherwise, neighbors send hello packets at the designated HelloInterval, for example, every 10 seconds. Forming adjacencies In an NBMA network, as in a broadcast network, all routers become adjacent to the DR and the BDR.
Page 44 IPv6 routing fundamentals Link-state update packets contain one or more link-state advertisements and are sent following a change in network conditions. • Link-state acknowledgement packets Link-state acknowledgement packets acknowledge receipt of link-state updates containing the header information from the received link-state advertisements. Link-state advertisements OSPF does not require each router to send the entire routing table to the neighbors.
Page 45: Ospf Virtual Links
• a directly connected network not running OSPF OSPF virtual links On an OSPF network, an Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 that is an ABR must connect directly to the backbone. If no physical connection is available, you can configure a virtual link automatically or manually.
Page 46 IPv6 routing fundamentals Figure 8: Virtual link between ABRs through a transit area To configure a virtual link between the ABRs in Area 1 and Area 3, define Area 2 as the transit area between the two areas. Identify R2 as the neighbor router, through which R2 must send information to reach the backbone through R1.
Page 47: Ospfv3
OSPFv3 multicast address AllSPFRouters. On nonbroadcast multiaccess networks, some configuration information is required to discover neighbors. • On all multiaccess networks (broadcast or nonbroadcast), the Hello Protocol elects a default router (DR) for the network. • The router attempts to form adjacencies with some neighbors. On multiaccess networks, the DR determines which routers become adjacent.
Page 48: Flooding Scope
IPv6 routing fundamentals Flooding scope LSA flooding scope is generalized in OSPFv3 and coded in the LS type field of the LSA. The following three flooding scopes are available for LSAs: • Link-local scope: The LSA is not flooded beyond the local link. •...
Page 49: Authentication
OSPFv3 Authentication OSPF for IPv6 requires the IP Authentication Header and the IP Encapsulating Security Payload for authentication and security. OSPFv3 does not support the authentication feature from OSPFv2. IPv6 uses the 16-bit one's complement checksum to protect against accidental data corruption. Packet format OSPFv3 runs directly over IPv6.
Page 50: New Lsas
IPv6 routing fundamentals New LSAs OSPFv3 includes link LSAs and Intra-Area-Prefix LSAs. Link LSA Link LSA uses local-link flooding scope, not flooded beyond the associated link. Link LSAs have three purposes: • to provide the link-local address of the router to all other nodes on the link •...
Page 51: Security
Security Security IPv6 uses the following key security features: Simple Network Management Protocol version 3 (SNMPv3) and Secure Shell (SSH). For detailed information, see Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 Security , NN46205-601. This section contains the following topics: • SNMP version 3 on page 51 •...
Page 52 SNMPv3 group option for access policies The access policy feature in the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 determines the access level users who connect to the switch by using various services, such as the File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Trivial FTP (TFTP), Telnet, and rlogin. The system access policy feature is based on the access levels and the network address of the user.
Page 53 Security Feature specifics When you enable SNMP service, this policy covers all users associated with the groups configured under access policy. The access privileges either allow or deny access. If you select allow, the VACM configuration determines the access level. The SNMP service default is disabled for all access policies.
Page 54: Secure Shell
IPv6 routing fundamentals View-based Access Control Model The VACM provides groups access, group security levels, and context based on a predefined subset of management information base (MIB) objects. These MIB objects define a set of managed objects and instances. VACM is the standard access control mechanism for SNMPv3 and provides: •...

Page 60: Remote Id
IPv6 routing fundamentals supports automatic allocation of reusable network addresses and of additional configuration parameters. To request the assignment of one or more IPv6 addresses, a client first locates a DHCP server and then requests the assignment of addresses and other configuration information from the server.
Page 61: Vrrpv3 Operation
ND traffic. This is especially so when there are many hosts all trying to determine the reachability of one of more routers. To provide fast failover of a default router for IPv6 LAN hosts, the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 supports the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP v3) for IPv6 (defined in draft-ietf-vrrp-ipv6-spec-08.txt).
Page 62 IPv6 routing fundamentals For VRID 1, R1 is the master and R2 is the backup. For VRID 2, R2 is the master and R1 is the backup. This configuration not only shares the load of the outgoing traffic, but it also provides full redundancy.
Page 63: Vrrp Advertisements And Master Router Failover
IPv6 VRRP VRRP advertisements and master router failover When a VRRP router is initialized, if it is the IP address owner, its priority is 255 and it sends a VRRP advertisement. The master router then continues to send advertisement messages at the advertisement interval period.
Page 64: Scaling
IPv6 routing fundamentals Scaling The Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 supports 255 VRRP interfaces for each switch. Critical IP address Within a VRRP VLAN, one link can go down while the remaining links in the VLAN remain operational. Because the VRRP VLAN continues to function, a virtual router associated with that VLAN does not register a master router failure.
Page 65: Hold-Down Timer
In addition, you can manually force the preemption of the master over the backup before the delay timer expires. Avaya recommends that you set all of your routers to the identical number of seconds for the hold-down timer. The hold-down timer has a default value of 0 seconds.
Page 66 IPv6 routing fundamentals To resolve this issue, assign the backup router as the backup master router. The backup master router can actively load-share the routing traffic with a master router. Because there is an exchange of MAC address tables between the two VRRP peer nodes, the VRRP backup master can forward traffic directly on behalf of the master router.
Page 67: Vrrp Fast Advertisment Interval
IPv6 VRRP Figure 14: VRRP configuration with SMLT The backup master feature only supports the triangular SMLT topology. Important: Do not use VRRP backup master and critical IP at the same time. Use one or the other. VRRP fast advertisment interval With the current implementation of VRRP, you can set the advertisement time interval (in seconds) between sending advertisement messages.
Page 68: Vrrp Considerations With Ipv6
Depending on the specific routing protocol, this convergence time can cause network interruptions ranging from seconds to minutes. Avaya Routed Split MultiLink Trunking (RSMLT) permits rapid failover for core topologies by providing an active-active router concept to core Split MultiLink Trunking (SMLT) networks. In the event of core router failures, RSMLT manages packet forwarding, thus minimizing dropped packets during the routing protocol convergence.
Page 69: Ipv4 Ist With Ipv6 Rsmlt
• IPv6 Static Routes • OSPFv3 IPv4 IST with IPv6 RSMLT Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 does not support the configuration of an IST over IPv6. IST is supported over IPv4 only. Enabling RSMLT for IPv4 and IPv6 To enable IPv6 RSMLT, you must use the same configuration commands provided for IPv4 RSMLT.
Page 70 IPv6 routing fundamentals RSMLT provides the loop-free topology. The aggregation layer switches are configured with routing enabled and provide active-active default gateway functionality through RSMLT. Figure 15: IPv6 RSMLT network example In the VLAN 3 portion of the network shown in the preceding figure, routers R1 and R2 provide RSMLT-enabled IPv6 service to hosts H1 and H2.
Page 71: Router R1 Recovery
IPv6 RSMLT At startup, R1 and R2 use the IST link to exchange full configuration information including MAC address for the IPv6 interfaces residing on SMLT VLAN 3. When R2 detects that the RSMLT in R1 transitions to the DOWN state (for example, if R1 itself is down, or its SMLT links are down, or the IST link is down) R2 takes over IPv6 termination and IPv6 Neighbor Discovery functionality on behalf or R1’s IPv6 SMLT interface.
Page 72: Hold-Up Timer
IP Prefix 2003::/64, but also for the core IPv6 prefix B. Similarly routers R3 and R4 provide router redundancy for IPv6 prefix C and also for core IPv6 prefix B. Avaya does not recommend that you both VRRP and RSMLT on the same VLAN. Use one or the other.

SMLT aggregation switches for each VLAN. The VLAN must be a member of SMLT links and the IST trunk. For more information about configuring SMLT in a Layer 2 environment, see Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 8800/8600 Configuration – Link Aggregation, MLT and SMLT (NN46205-518).
Page 74: Rsmlt Considerations With Ospf
IPv6 routing fundamentals If you enable RSMLT-edge, you must also ensure that the hold-up timer for RSMLT on those edge VLANs is set to infinity (9999). This is to ensure that if one cluster switch fails, the remaining cluster switch maintains ownership of its failed peer IPs indefinitely. It does not matter if that VLAN is tagged over SMLT links, single attached links, or more SMLT links;...
