Configuring IPv6

Configuring IPv6 ICMP Rate Limiting

ICMP rate limiting is enabled by default with a default interval between error messages of 100
milliseconds and a bucket size (maximum number of tokens to be stored in a bucket) of 10.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to change the ICMP rate-limiting parameters:
Command
Step 1 configure terminal
Step 2
ipv6 icmp error-interval interval [bucketsize]
Step 3 end
Step 4 show ipv6 interface [interface-id]
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
To return to the default configuration, use the no ipv6 icmp error-interval global configuration
command.
This example shows how to configure an IPv6 ICMP error message interval of 50 milliseconds and a
bucket size of 20 tokens.
Switch(config)# ipv6 icmp error-interval 50 20

Configuring CEF and dCEF for IPv6

Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) is a Layer 3 IP switching technology to improve network performance.
In a switch stack, the hardware uses distributed CEF (dCEF) in the stack. IPv6 CEF is IPv6 CEF and
dCEF are disabled by default but are automatically enabled when you configure IPv6 routing.
To route IPv6 unicast packets, you must first globally configure IPv6 unicast packet forwarding by using
the ipv6 unicast-routing global configuration command. You must configure an IPv6 address and IPv6
processing on an interface by using the ipv6 address interface configuration command.
To disable IPv6 CEF or distributed CEF, use the no ipv6 cef or no ipv6 cef distributed global
configuration command. To reenable IPv6 CEF or dCEF if it has been disabled, use the ipv6 cef or ipv6
cef distributed global configuration command. You can verify the IPv6 state by entering the show ipv6
cef privileged EXEC command.
For more information about configuring CEF and dCEF, see the "Implementing IPv6 Addressing and
Basic Connectivity" chapter in the Cisco IOS IPv6 Configuration Library on Cisco.com.

Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Configure the interval and bucket size for IPv6 ICMP error
messages:
interval—The interval (in milliseconds) between tokens
•
being added to the bucket. The range is from 0 to
2147483647 milliseconds.
bucketsize—(Optional) The maximum number of tokens
•
stored in the bucket. The range is from 1 to 200.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
