Description
A VLAN is marked "up" if the router can send and receive
packets on this interface, "down" if a line signal is not
present, or "administratively down" if the interface has been
disabled by the administrator.
IPv6 is marked "enable" if the router can send and receive IP
traffic on this interface, "disable" if the router cannot send
and receive IP traffic on this interface, or "stalled" if a
duplicate link-local address is detected on the interface.

In addition to the unicast addresses assigned to an interface,
a node is required to join the all-nodes multicast addresses
FF01::1 and FF02::1 for all IPv6 nodes within scope 1
(interface-local) and scope 2 (link-local), respectively.
FF01::1/16 is the transient node-local multicast address for
all attached IPv6 nodes, and FF02::1/16 is the link-local
multicast address for all attached IPv6 nodes. The node-local
multicast address is only used for loopback transmission of
multicast traffic. Link-local multicast addresses cover the
same types as used by link-local unicast addresses, including
all nodes (FF02::1), all routers (FF02::2), and solicited nodes
(FF02::1:FFXX:XXXX) as described below.
A node is also required to compute and join the associated
solicited-node multicast addresses for every unicast and
anycast address it is assigned. IPv6 addresses that differ only
in the high-order bits, e.g. due to multiple high-order
prefixes associated with different aggregations, will map to
the same solicited-node address, thereby reducing the
number of multicast addresses a node must join. In this
example, FF02::1:FF90:0/104 is the solicited-node multicast
address which is formed by taking the low-order 24 bits of
the address and appending those bits to the prefix.
