The previously-defined neighbors are displayed along with their states.
The possible states are:
Incomplete — An address resolution is in progress, and the link-layer
–
address of the neighbor has not yet been determined.
– Reachable — The neighbor is known to have been reachable recently
(within tens of seconds).
– Stale — The neighbor is no longer known to be reachable, but until
traffic is sent to the neighbor, no attempt is made to verify its
reachability.
– Delay — The neighbor is no longer known to be reachable, and traffic
has recently been sent to the neighbor. Rather than probe the
neighbor immediately, however, there is a delay sending probes for a
short while, in order to give upper-layer protocols a chance to provide
reachability confirmation.
Probe — The neighbor is no longer known to be reachable, and
–
Unicast Neighbor Solicitation probes are being sent to verify
reachability.
