icmp ipv4 rate-limit unreachable

To limit the rate that IPv4 Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) destination unreachable messages are generated, use the icmp ipv4 rate-limit unreachable command in XR Config mode. To remove the rate limit, use the no form of this command.

icmp ipv4 rate-limit unreachable [DF] milliseconds

no icmp ipv4 rate-limit unreachable [DF] milliseconds

Syntax Description


DF	(Optional) Limits the rate at which ICMP destination unreachable messages are sent when code 4 fragmentation is needed and data fragmentation is (DF) set, as specified in the IP header of the ICMP destination unreachable message.
`milliseconds`	Time period (in milliseconds) between the sending of ICMP destination unreachable messages. Range is 1 to 4294967295.

Command Default

The default value is one ICMP destination unreachable message every 500 milliseconds.

Command Modes

XR Config mode

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The Cisco IOS XR software maintains two timers: one for general destination unreachable messages and one for DF destination unreachable messages. Both share the same time limits and defaults. If the DF option is not configured, the icmp ipv4 rate-limit unreachable command sets the time values for DF destination unreachable messages. If the DF option is configured, its time values remain independent from those of general destination unreachable messages.

Task ID


Task ID	Operations
ipv4	read, write
network	read, write

Examples

The following example shows how to set the time interval for the ICMP destination unreachable message to be generated at a minimum interval of 10 ms:


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# icmp ipv4 rate-limit unreachable 10

ipv4 address (network)

To set a primary or secondary IPv4 address for an interface, use the ipv4 address command in interface configuration mode. To remove an IPv4 address, use the no form of this command.

ipv4 address ipv4-address mask [secondary] [route-tag route-tag value]

no ipv4 address ipv4-address mask [secondary] [route-tag route-tag value]

[ algorithm algo-no ]

Syntax Description

ipv4-address

IPv4 address.

mask

Mask for the associated IP subnet. The network mask can be specified in either of two ways:

The network mask can be a four-part dotted decimal address. For example, 255.0.0.0 indicates that each bit equal to 1 means the corresponding address bit belongs to the network address.
The network mask can be indicated as a slash (/) and number. For example, /8 indicates that the first 8 bits of the mask are ones, and the corresponding bits of the address are network address.

secondary

(Optional) Specifies that the configured address is a secondary IPv4 address. If this keyword is omitted, the configured address is the primary IPv4 address.

route-tag

(Optional) Specifies that the configured address has a route tag to be associated with it.

route-tag value

(Optional) Value of the route tag. Range is 1 to 4294967295.

algorithm

(Optional) Associates the Flexible Algorithm with the IP address of the interface.

algo-no

Defines the Flexible Algorithm number. Range is from 128-255. 0 is default algorithm value

Note

If algo-no is not provided, 0 is taken as default.

Command Default

No IPv4 address is defined for the interface.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.
Release 7.6.1	The keyword algorithm was added.

Usage Guidelines

An interface can have one primary IPv4 address and multiple secondary IPv4 addresses. Packets generated by the software always use the primary IPv4 address. Therefore, all networking devices on a segment should share the same primary network number.

Note

The same IPv4 address configured on two different interfaces causes an error message to display that indicates the conflict. The interface located in the highest rack, slot, module, instance, and port is disabled.

Hosts can determine subnet masks using the IPv4 Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) mask request message. Networking devices respond to this request with an ICMP mask reply message.

You can disable IPv4 processing on a particular interface by removing its IPv4 address with the no ipv4 address command. If the software detects another host using one of its IPv4 addresses, it will display an error message on the console.

The optional secondary keyword allows you to specify an unlimited number of secondary addresses. Secondary addresses are treated like primary addresses, except that the system never generates datagrams other than routing updates with secondary source addresses. IPv4 broadcasts and Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) requests are handled properly, as are interface routes in the IP routing table.

Secondary IPv4 addresses can be used in a variety of situations. The following are the most common applications:

There may not be enough host addresses for a particular network segment. For example, your subnetting allows up to 254 hosts per logical subnet, but on one physical subnet you need to have 300 host addresses. Using secondary IPv4 addresses on the networking devices allows you to have two logical subnets using one physical subnet.
Many older networks were built using Level 2 bridges. The judicious use of secondary addresses can aid in the transition to a subnetted, router-based network. Routers on an older, bridged segment can be easily made aware that there are many subnets on that segment.

The route-tag feature attaches a tag to all IPv4 addresses. The tag is propagated from the Management Agents (MA) to the Address Repository Managers (RPM) to routing protocols, thus enabling the user to control the redistribution of connected routes by looking at the route tags via RPL scripts.

The algorithm command is used to associate the IP address of an interface to an IP flexible algorithm.

ipv4 conflict-policy

To enable IP Address Repository Manager (IPARM) conflict resolution, use the ipv4 conflict-policy command in XR Config mode. To disable the IPARM conflict resolution, use the no form of the command.

ipv4 conflict-policy {highest-ip | longest-prefix | static}

no ipv4 conflict-policy {highest-ip | longest-prefix | static}

Syntax Description


highest-ip	Keeps the highest ip address in the conflict set.
longest-prefix	Keeps the longest prefix match in the conflict set.
static	Keeps the existing interface running across new address configurations.

Command Default

The precedence rule adopted is loopback > physical > other virtual interfaces. Within virtual interfaces, there is an alphabetical preference, for example, loopback1 > loopback2 > tunnel. Among physical interfaces, the lower rack or slot takes control.

Command Modes

XR Config mode

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use ipv4 conflict-policy command to set an IPARM policy that resolves a conflict in the configured addresses. The policy tells IPARM what address to select from the addresses in conflict. The policy then forces the address in conflict to become inactive.

Task ID

ipv4 directed-broadcast

To enable forwarding of IPv4 directed broadcasts on an interface, use the ipv4 directed-broadcast command in interface configuration mode. To disable forwarding of IPv4 directed broadcast on an interface, use the no form of this command.

ipv4 directed-broadcast

no ipv4 directed-broadcast

Syntax Description

This command has no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

By default, directed broadcasts are dropped.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

A directed broadcast is a packet sent to a specific network. IPv4 directed broadcasts are dropped and not forwarded. Dropping IPv4 directed broadcasts makes routers less susceptible to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks.

Task ID


Task ID	Operations
ipv4	read, write
network	read, write

Examples

The following example shows how to enable the forwarding of IPv4 directed broadcasts on interface 0/1/1/0:


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface  0/1/1/0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ipv4 directed-broadcast

ipv4 helper-address

To configure the address to which the software forwards User Datagram Protocol (UDP) broadcasts, including BOOTP, received on an interface, use the ipv4 helper-address command in interface configuration mode. To remove an IPv4 helper address, use the no form of this command.

{ipv4 helper-address [vrf vrf-name] | [destination-address] }

{no ipv4 helper-address [vrf vrf-name] | [destination-address] }

Syntax Description


vrf	(Optional) Displays VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) instance information.
`vrf-name`	(Optional) Name of a VRF.
`destination-address`	Destination broadcast or host address to be used when UDP broadcasts are forwarded. There can be more than one helper address per interface.

Command Default

IPv4 helper addresses are disabled. Default VRF is assumed if the VRF is not specified.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command with the forward-protocol udp command in XR Config mode, which specifies by port number the broadcast packets that are forwarded. UDP is enabled by default for well-known ports. The ipv4 helper-address command specifies the destination to which the UDP packets are forwarded.

One common application that requires IPv4 helper addresses is Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which is defined in RFC 1531. DHCP protocol information is carried inside of BOOTP packets. To enable BOOTP broadcast forwarding for a set of clients, configure an IPv4 helper address on the networking device interface physically closest to the client. The IPv4 helper address should specify the address of the DHCP server. If you have multiple servers, you can configure one IPv4 helper address for each server. Because BOOTP packets are forwarded by default, DHCP information can now be forwarded by the networking device. The DHCP server now receives broadcasts from the DHCP clients.

A DHCP relay profile must be configured to perform DHCP Relay. The ip helper-address command is used to forward broadcast UDP (non-DHCP) packets.

Task ID


Task ID	Operations
ipv4	read, write
network	read, write

Examples

The following example shows how to specify that all UDP broadcast packets received on HundredGigEinterface 0/1/0/0 are forwarded to 192.168.1.0:



RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface HundredGigE0/1/0/0
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ipv4 helper-address 192.168.1.0

ipv4 mask-reply

To enable the software to respond to IPv4 Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) mask requests by sending ICMP mask reply messages, use the ipv4 mask-reply command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default, use the no form of this command.

ipv4 mask-reply

no ipv4 mask-reply

Syntax Description

This command has no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

IPv4 mask replies are not sent.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

This command enables the software to respond to IPv4 ICMP mask requests by sending ICMP mask reply messages.

Task ID


Task ID	Operations
ipv4	read, write
network	read, write

Examples

The following example enables the sending of ICMP mask reply messages on HundredGigEinterface 0/1/0/0:


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface HundredGigE0/1/0/0 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ipv4 mask-reply

ipv4 mtu

To set the maximum transmission unit (MTU) size of IPv4 packets sent on an interface, use the ipv4 mtu command in interface configuration mode.

To restore the default MTU size, use the no form of this command.

ipv4 mtu bytes

no ipv4 mtu

Syntax Description


`bytes`	MTU in bytes. Range is 68 to 65535 bytes for IPv4 packets. The maximum MTU size that can be set on an interface depends on the interface medium.

Command Default

If no MTU size is configured for IPv4 packets sent on an interface, the interface derives the MTU from the Layer 2 MTU.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The router punts the packets that needs fragmentation; whereas the software path drops the subscriber traffic that needs fragmentation.

The maximum MTU size that can be set on an interface depends on the interface medium. If the Layer 2 MTU is smaller than the Layer 3 MTU, the Cisco IOS XR software uses the Layer 2 MTU value for the Layer 3 MTU. Conversely, if the Layer 3 MTU is smaller than the Layer 2 MTU, the software uses Layer 3 MTU value. In other words the Cisco IOS XR software uses the lower of the two values for the MTU.

All devices on a physical medium must have the same protocol MTU to operate.

Note

Changing the MTU value (with the mtu interface configuration command) can affect the IPv4 MTU value. If the current IPv4 MTU value is the same as the MTU value, and you change the MTU value, the IPv4 MTU value will be modified automatically to match the new MTU. However, the reverse is not true; changing the IPv4 MTU value has no effect on the value for the mtu command.

RP/0/(config-if)# ipv4 mtu 1500

ipv4 redirects

To enable the sending of IPv4 Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) redirect messages if the software is forced to resend a packet through the same interface on which it was received, use the ipv4 redirects command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default, use the no form of this command.

ipv4 redirects

no ipv4 redirects

Syntax Description

This command has no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

ICMP redirect messages are disabled by default on the interface.

ipv4 unnumbered (point-to-point)

To enable IPv4 processing on a point-to-point interface without assigning an explicit IPv4 address to that interface, use the ipv4 unnumbered command in an interface configuration mode. To disable this feature, use the no form of this command.

ipv4 unnumbered interface-type interface-instance

no ipv4 unnumbered interface-type interface-instance

Syntax Description

interface-type

Interface type. For more information, use the question mark (?) online help function.

interface-instance

Either a physical interface instance or a virtual interface instance as follows:

Physical interface instance. Naming notation is rack/slot/module/port and a slash between values is required as part of the notation.

rack: Chassis number of the rack.
slot: Physical slot number of the modular services card or line card.
module: Module number. A physical layer interface module (PLIM) is always 0.
port: Physical port number of the interface.

Note

In references to a Management Ethernet interface located on a route processor card, the physical slot number is alphanumeric (RSP0 ) and the module is CPU0. Example: interface MgmtEth0/RSP0 /CPU0/0.

Virtual interface instance. Number range varies depending on interface type.

For more information about the syntax for the router, use the question mark (?) online help function.

Command Default

IPv4 processing on a point-to-point interface is disabled unless an IPv4 address is assigned explicitly to that interface.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

For release Release 4.2.0 onward, to enter the dynamic template configuration mode, run the dynamic-template command in the XR Config mode.

Whenever the unnumbered interface generates a packet (for example, for a routing update), it uses the address of the specified interface as the source address of the IPv4 packet. It also uses the IPv4 address of the specified interface in determining which routing processes are sending updates over the unnumbered interface. Restrictions include the following:

You cannot use the ping EXEC command to determine whether the interface is up because the interface has no address. Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) can be used to remotely monitor interface status.

The interface you specify by the interface-type andinterface-number arguments must be enabled (listed as “up” in the show interfaces command display).

ipv4 virtual address

To define an IPv4 virtual address for a network of management Ethernet interfaces, use the ipv4 virtual interface command in XR Config mode. To remove an IPv4 virtual address from the configuration, use the no form of this command.

ipv4 virtual address { [vrf vrf-name] ipv4-address/ mask | use-as-src-addr}

no ipv4 virtual address { [vrf vrf-name] ipv4-address/ mask | use-as-src-addr}

Syntax Description


vrf `vrf-name`	(Optional) Configures the virtual address on a per VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) basis for the management interfaces The `vrf-name` argument specifies the name of the VRF.
`ipv4 address`	Virtual IPv4 address and the mask that is to be unconfigured.
`mask`	Mask for the associated IP subnet. The network mask can be specified in either of two ways: The network mask can be a four-part dotted-decimal address. For example, 255.0.0.0 indicates that each bit equal to 1 means the corresponding address bit belongs to the network address. The network mask can be indicated as a slash ( / ) and number. For example, /8 indicates that the first 8 bits of the mask are ones, and the corresponding bits of the address are network address. A slash between numbers is required as part of the notation.
use-as-src-addr	Enables the virtual address to be used as the default SRC address on sourced packets.

Command Default

No IPv4 virtual address is defined for the configuration.

Command Modes

XR Config mode

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Configuring an IPv4 virtual address enables you to access the router from a single virtual address with a management network. An IPv4 virtual address persists across route processor (RP) failover situations.

Configuring an IPv4 virtual address enables you to access a dual RP router from a single address without prior knowledge of which RP is active. An IPv4 virtual address persists across RP failovers. For this to happen, the virtual IPv4 address must share a common IPv4 subnet with a Management Ethernet interface on both RPs.

If you disable the ipv4 virtual address command with the vrf keyword, the virtual IP address is unconfigured for the corresponding VRF or for the default if no VRF is specified. This results in the removal of the entry for the virtual IP address in the VRF table and in the ARP cache.

The default VRF is chosen when no VRF is specified. The virtual IP address is activated on a management interface that is attached to a default VRF.

The use-as-src-addr keyword eliminates the need for configuring a loopback interface as the source interface (that is, update source) for management applications. When an update source is not configured, management applications allow the transport processes (TCP, UDP, raw_ip) to pick a suitable source address. The transport processes, in turn, consult the FIB to do so. If a Management Ethernet's IP address is picked as the source address and if the use-as-src-addr keyword is configured, then the transport processes replace the Management Ethernet's IP address with a relevant virtual IP address. This functionality works across RP switchovers.

ipv6 address

To configure an IPv6 address for an interface and enable IPv6 processing on the interface using an EUI-64 interface ID in the low-order 64 bits of the address, use the ipv6 address command in interface configuration mode. To remove the address from the interface, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 address ipv6-prefix/ prefix-length [eui-64] [route-tag route-tag value]

no ipv6 address ipv6-prefix/ prefix-length [eui-64] [route-tag route-tag value]

[ algorithm algo-no ]

Syntax Description

ipv6-prefix

The IPv6 network assigned to the interface.

This argument must be in the form documented in RFC 2373 where the address is specified in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons.

/ prefix-length

The length of the IPv6 prefix. A decimal value that indicates how many of the high-order contiguous bits of the address compose the prefix (the network portion of the address). A slash (/) must precede the decimal value.

eui-64

(Optional) Specifies an interface ID in the low-order 64 bits of the IPv6 address.

route-tag

(Optional) Specifies that the configured address has a route tag to be associated with it.

route-tag value

(Optional) Value of the route tag. Range is 1 to 4294967295.

algorithm

(Optional) Associates the Flexible Algorithm with the IP address of the interface.

algo-no

Defines the Flexible Algorithm number. Range is from 128-255. 0 is default algorithm value

Note

If algo-no is not provided, 0 is taken as default.

Command Default

No IPv6 address is defined for the interface.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.
Release 7.6.1	The keyword algorithm was added.

Usage Guidelines

If the value specified for the / prefix-length argument is greater than 64 bits, the prefix bits have precedence over the interface ID.

Using the no ipv6 address command without arguments removes all manually configured IPv6 addresses from an interface.

If the Cisco IOS XR software detects another host using one of its IPv6 addresses, it displays an error message on the console.

The route-tag feature attaches a tag to all IPv6 addresses. The tag is propagated from the Management Agents (MA) to the Address Repository Managers (RPM) to routing protocols, thus enabling the user to control the redistribution of connected routes by looking at the route tags via RPL scripts.

The algorithm command is used to associate the IP address of an interface to an IP flexible algorithm.

ipv6 icmp error-interval

To configure the interval and bucket size for IPv6 Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) error messages on all nodes, use the ipv6 icmp error-interval command in XR Config mode mode. To return the interval to its default setting, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 icmp error-interval milliseconds [bucketsize]

no ipv6 icmp error-interval

Syntax Description


`milliseconds`	Time interval (in milliseconds) between tokens being placed in the bucket. Range is 0 to 2147483647.
`bucketsize`	(Optional) The maximum number of tokens stored in the bucket. The acceptable range is 1 to 200 with a default of 10 tokens.

Command Default

ICMP rate limiting is enabled by default. To disable ICMP rate limiting, set the interval to zero.

milliseconds : 100 milliseconds

bucketsize : 10 tokens

Command Modes

XR Config mode

Command History


Release	Modification
	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use the ipv6 icmp error-interval command in XR Config mode mode to limit the rate at which IPv6 ICMP error messages are sent for each node. A token bucket algorithm is used with one token representing one IPv6 ICMP error message. Tokens are placed in the virtual bucket at a specified interval until the maximum number of tokens allowed in the bucket is reached.

The milliseconds argument specifies the time interval between tokens being placed in the bucket. The optional bucketsize argument is used to define the maximum number of tokens stored in the bucket. Tokens are removed from the bucket when IPv6 ICMP error messages are sent, which means that if the bucketsize argument is set to 20, a rapid succession of 20 IPv6 ICMP error messages can be sent. When the bucket is empty of tokens, IPv6 ICMP error messages are not sent until a new token is placed in the bucket.

Use the show ipv6 traffic EXEC command to display IPv6 ICMP rate-limited counters.

ipv6 mtu

To set the maximum transmission unit (MTU) size of IPv6 packets sent on an interface, use the ipv6 mtu command in an appropriate configuration mode.

To restore the default MTU size, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 mtu bytes

no ipv6 mtu

Syntax Description


`bytes`	MTU in bytes. Range is 1280 to 65535 for IPv6 packets. The maximum MTU size that can be set on an interface depends on the interface medium.

Command Default

If no MTU size is configured for IPv6 packets sent on an interface, the interface derives the MTU from the Layer 2 MTU.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (not applicable for BNG)

Dynamic template configuration (for BNG)

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

If an IPv6 packet exceeds the MTU set for the interface, only the source router of the packet can fragment it.

The maximum MTU size that can be set on an interface depends on the interface medium. If the Layer 2 MTU is smaller than the Layer 3 MTU, the Cisco IOS XR software uses the Layer 2 MTU value for the Layer 3 MTU. Conversely, If the Layer 3 MTU is smaller than the Layer 2 MTU, the software uses Layer 3 MTU value. In other words the Cisco IOS XR software uses the lower of the two values for the MTU.

All devices on a physical medium must have the same protocol MTU to operate.

For BNG, ensure you run this command in the dynamic template configuration mode. To enter the dynamic template configuration mode, run dynamic-template command in the XR Config mode.

Note

Changing the MTU value (with the mtu interface configuration command) can affect the IPv6 MTU value. If the current IPv6 MTU value is the same as the MTU value, and you change the MTU value, the IPv6 MTU value will be modified automatically to match the new MTU. However, the reverse is not true; changing the IPv6 MTU value has no effect on the value for the mtu command.

ipv6 nd dad attempts

To configure the number of consecutive neighbor solicitation messages that are sent on an interface while duplicate address detection is performed on the unicast IPv6 addresses of the interface, use the ipv6 nd dad attempts command in an appropriate configuration mode. To return the number of messages to the default value, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 nd dad attempts value

no ipv6 nd dad attempts value

Syntax Description


`value`	Number of neighbor solicitation messages. Range is 0 to 600. Configuring a value of 0 disables duplicate address detection processing on the specified interface; a value of 1 configures a single transmission without follow-up transmissions.

Command Default

Duplicate address detection on unicast IPv6 addresses with the sending of one neighbor solicitation message is enabled. The default is one message.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (not applicable for BNG)

Dynamic template configuration (for BNG)

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Duplicate address detection verifies the uniqueness of new unicast IPv6 addresses before the addresses are assigned to interfaces (the new addresses remain in a tentative state while duplicate address detection is performed). Duplicate address detection uses neighbor solicitation messages to verify the uniqueness of unicast IPv6 addresses.

The DupAddrDetectTransmits node configuration variable (as specified in RFC 2462, IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration) is used to automatically determine the number of consecutive neighbor solicitation messages that are sent on an interface while duplicate address detection is performed on a tentative unicast IPv6 address.

The interval between the sending of duplicate address detection neighbor solicitation messages (the duplicate address detection timeout interval) is specified by the neighbor discovery-related variable RetransTimer (as specified in RFC 2461, Neighbor Discovery for IP Version 6 [IPv6]), which is used to determine the time between retransmissions of neighbor solicitation messages to a neighbor when the address is being resolved or when the reachability of a neighbor is being probed. This is the same management variable used to specify the interval for neighbor solicitation messages during address resolution and neighbor unreachability detection. Use the ipv6 nd ns-interval command to configure the interval between neighbor solicitation messages that are sent during duplicate address detection.

Duplicate address detection is suspended on interfaces that are administratively down. While an interface is administratively down, the unicast IPv6 addresses assigned to the interface are set to a pending state. Duplicate address detection is automatically restarted on an interface when the interface returns to being administratively up.

For BNG, ensure you run this command in the dynamic template configuration mode. To enter the dynamic template configuration mode, run dynamic-template command in the .

Note

An interface returning to administratively up restarts duplicate address detection for all of the unicast IPv6 addresses on the interface. While duplicate address detection is performed on the link-local address of an interface, the state for the other IPv6 addresses is still set to tentative. When duplicate address detection is completed on the link-local address, duplicate address detection is performed on the remaining IPv6 addresses.

When duplicate address detection identifies a duplicate address, the state of the address is set to duplicate and the address is not used. If the duplicate address is the link-local address of the interface, the processing of IPv6 packets is disabled on the interface and an error message similar to the following is issued:


ipv6_nd[145]: %IPV6_ND-3-ADDRESS_DUPLICATE : Duplicate address 111::1 has been detected

If the duplicate address is a global address of the interface, the address is not used and an error message similar to the following is issued:


%IPV6-4-DUPLICATE: Duplicate address 3000::4 on &HundredGigE;

All configuration commands associated with the duplicate address remain as configured while the state of the address is set to duplicate.

If the link-local address for an interface changes, duplicate address detection is performed on the new link-local address and all of the other IPv6 address associated with the interface are regenerated (duplicate address detection is performed only on the new link-local address).

ipv6-prefix	The IPv6 network number to include in router advertisements. This keyword must be in the form documented in RFC 2373 where the address is specified in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons.
/prefix-length	The length of the IPv6 prefix. A decimal value that indicates how many of the high-order contiguous bits of the address compose the prefix (the network portion of the address). A slash (/) must precede the decimal value.
default	(Optional) Specifies all prefixes.
valid-lifetime	(Optional) The amount of time (in seconds) that the specified IPv6 prefix is advertised as being valid. The range of values is 0 to 4294967295 seconds.
at	(Optional) The date and time at which the lifetime and preference expire. The prefix is valid until this specified date and time are reached. Dates are expressed in the form `date-valid-expire month-valid-expire hh:mm-valid-expire date-prefer-expire month-prefer-expire hh:mm-prefer-expire.`
infinite	(Optional) The valid lifetime does not expire.
no-adv	(Optional) The prefix is not advertised.
no-autoconfig	(Optional) Indicates to hosts on the local link that the specified prefix cannot be used for IPv6 autoconfiguration.
off-link	(Optional) Indicates that the specified prefix is assigned to the link. Nodes sending traffic to such addresses that contain the specified prefix consider the destination to be locally reachable on the link. This prefix should not be used for onlink determination.

Command Default

All prefixes configured on interfaces that originate IPv6 router advertisements are advertised with a valid lifetime of 2592000 seconds (30 days) and a preferred lifetime of 604800 seconds (7 days), and with both the “onlink” and “autoconfig” flags set.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

This command allows control over the individual parameters per prefix, including whether or not the prefix should be advertised.

To control how prefixes are advertised, use the ipv6 nd prefix command. By default, prefixes configured as addresses on an interface using the ipv6 address command are advertised with default values. If you configure prefixes for advertisement using the ipv6 nd prefix command, only the specified prefixes are advertised with the configured values, all other prefixes are advertised with default values.

The default keyword can be used to set default parameters for all prefixes.

A date can be set to specify the expiration of a prefix. The valid and preferred lifetimes are counted down in real time. When the expiration date is reached, the prefix is no longer advertised.

When onlink is “on” (by default), the specified prefix is assigned to the link. Nodes sending traffic to such addresses that contain the specified prefix consider the destination to be locally reachable on the link.

When autoconfig is “on” (by default), it indicates to hosts on the local link that the specified prefix can be used for IPv6 autoconfiguration.

ipv6 nd ra-interval

To configure the interval between IPv6 router advertisement transmissions on an interface, use the ipv6 nd ra-interval command in an appropriate configuration mode. To restore the default interval, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 nd ra-interval seconds

no ipv6 nd ra-interval seconds

Syntax Description


`seconds`	The interval (in seconds) between IPv6 router advertisement transmissions.

Command Default

seconds : 200 seconds

Command Modes

Interface configuration (not applicable for BNG)

Dynamic template configuration (for BNG)

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The interval between transmissions should be less than or equal to the IPv6 router advertisement lifetime if the router is configured as a default router by using the ipv6 nd ra-lifetime command. To prevent synchronization with other IPv6 nodes, randomly adjust the actual value used to within 20 percent of the specified value.

For BNG, ensure you run this command in the dynamic template configuration mode. To enter the dynamic template configuration mode, run dynamic-template command in the XR Config mode.

ipv6 nd ra-lifetime

To configure the router lifetime value in IPv6 router advertisements on an interface, use the ipv6 nd ra-lifetime command in an appropriate configuration mode. To restore the default lifetime, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 nd ra-lifetime seconds

no ipv6 nd ra-lifetime

Syntax Description


`seconds`	The validity (in seconds) of this router as a default router on this interface.

Command Default

seconds : 1800 seconds

Command Modes

Interface configuration (not applicable for BNG)

Dynamic template configuration (for BNG)

Usage Guidelines

The router lifetime value is included in all IPv6 router advertisements sent out the interface. The value indicates the usefulness of the router as a default router on this interface. Setting the value to 0 indicates that the router should not be considered a default router on this interface. The router lifetime value can be set to a nonzero value to indicate that it should be considered a default router on this interface. The nonzero value for the router lifetime value should not be less than the router advertisement interval.

For BNG, ensure you run this command in the dynamic template configuration mode. To enter the dynamic template configuration mode, run dynamic-template command in the XR Config mode.

ipv6 nd reachable-time

To configure the amount of time that a remote IPv6 node is considered reachable after some reachability confirmation event has occurred, use the ipv6 nd reachable-time command in an appropriate configuration mode. To restore the default time, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 nd reachable-time milliseconds

no ipv6 nd reachable-time

Syntax Description


`milliseconds`	The amount of time (in milliseconds) that a remote IPv6 node is considered reachable. The range is from 0 to 3600000.

Command Default

0 milliseconds (unspecified) is advertised in router advertisements and 30000 (30 seconds) is used for the neighbor discovery activity of the router itself.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (not applicable for BNG)

Dynamic template configuration (for BNG)

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The configured time enables the router to detect unavailable neighbors. Shorter configured times enable the router to detect unavailable neighbors more quickly; however, shorter times consume more IPv6 network bandwidth and processing resources in all IPv6 network devices. Very short configured times are not recommended in normal IPv6 operation.

The configured time is included in all router advertisements sent out of an interface so that nodes on the same link use the same time value. A value of 0 indicates that the configured time is unspecified by this router.

For BNG, ensure you run this command in the dynamic template configuration mode. To enter the dynamic template configuration mode, run dynamic-template command in the XR Config mode.

ipv6 neighbor

To configure a static entry in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache, use the ipv6 neighbor command in XR Config mode mode. To remove a static IPv6 entry from the IPv6 neighbors discovery cache, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 neighbor ipv6-address interface-type interface-instance hardware-address

no ipv6 neighbor ipv6-address interface-type interface-instance hardware-address

Syntax Description

ipv6-address

The IPv6 address that corresponds to the local data-link address.

This argument must be in the form documented in RFC 2373 where the address is specified in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons.

interface-type

Interface type. For more information, use the question mark (?) online help function.

interface-instance

Either a physical interface instance or a virtual interface instance as follows:

Physical interface instance. Naming notation is rack/slot/module/port and a slash between values is required as part of the notation.

rack: Chassis number of the rack.
slot: Physical slot number of the modular services card or line card.
module: Module number. A physical layer interface module (PLIM) is always 0.
port: Physical port number of the interface.

Note

In references to a Management Ethernet interface located on a route processor card, the physical slot number is alphanumeric (RSP0 ) and the module is CPU0. Example: interface MgmtEth0/RSP0 /CPU0/0.

Virtual interface instance. Number range varies depending on interface type.

For more information about the syntax for the router, use the question mark (?) online help function.

hardware-address

The local data-link address (a 48-bit address).

Command Default

Static entries are not configured in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache.

Command Modes

XR Config mode

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The ipv6 neighbor command is similar to the arp (global) command.

If an entry for the specified IPv6 address already exists in the neighbor discovery cache—learned through the IPv6 neighbor discovery process—the entry is automatically converted to a static entry.

Use the show ipv6 neighbors command to display static entries in the IPv6 neighbors discovery cache. A static entry in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache has one state: reach (reachable)—The interface for this entry is up. If the interface for the entry is down, the show ipv6 neighbors command does not show the entry.

Note

Reachability detection is not applied to static entries in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache; therefore, the descriptions for the reach (reachable) state are different for dynamic and static cache entries. See the show ipv6 neighbors command for a description of the reach (reachable) state for dynamic cache entries.

The clear ipv6 neighbors command deletes all entries in the IPv6 neighbors discovery cache, except static entries. The no ipv6 neighbor command deletes a specified static entry from the neighbor discovery cache; the command does not remove dynamic entries—learned from the IPv6 neighbor discovery process—from the cache. Disabling IPv6 on an interface by using the no ipv6 enable or the no ipv6 unnumbered command deletes all IPv6 neighbor discovery cache entries configured for that interface, except static entries (the state of the entry changes to reach [reachable]).

Static entries in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache are not modified by the neighbor discovery process.

Note

Static entries for IPv6 neighbors can be configured only on IPv6-enabled LAN and ATM LAN Emulation interfaces.

Usage Guidelines

The no ipv6 source-route command (which is the default) prevents hosts from performing source routing using your routers. When the no ipv6 source-route command is configured and the router receives a packet with a type 0 source routing header, the router drops the packet and sends an IPv6 ICMP error message back to the source and logs an appropriate debug message.

Usage Guidelines

If the software receives a nonbroadcast packet destined for itself that uses a protocol it does not recognize, it sends an ICMP protocol unreachable message to the source.

If the software receives a datagram that it cannot deliver to its ultimate destination because it knows of no route to the destination address, it replies to the originator of that datagram with an ICMP host unreachable message.

This command affects a number of ICMP unreachable messages.

ipv6 virtual address

To define an IPv6 virtual address for a network of management Ethernet interfaces, use the ipv6 virtual address command in XR Config mode. To remove an IPv6 virtual address from the configuration, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 virtual address { [vrf vrf-name]ipv6-address/ prefix-length | use-as-src-addr}

no ipv6 virtual address { [vrf vrf-name]ipv6-address/ prefix-length | use-as-src-addr}

Syntax Description


vrf `vrf-name`	(Optional) Configures the virtual address on a per VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) basis for the management interfaces The `vrf-name` argument specifies the name of the VRF.
`ipv6 address`	The virtual IPv6 address to be used.
`prefix-length`	The length of the IPv6 prefix. A decimal value that indicates how many of the high-order contiguous bits of the address comprise the prefix (the network portion of the address). A slash mark must precede the decimal value.
use-as-src-addr	Enables the virtual address to be used as the default SRC address on sourced packets.

Command Default

No IPv6 virtual address is defined for the configuration.

Command Modes

XR Config mode

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Configuring an IPv6 virtual address enables you to access the router from a single virtual address with a management network. An IPv6 virtual address persists across route processor (RP) failover situations.

Configuring an IPv6 virtual address enables you to access a dual RP router from a single address without prior knowledge of which RP is active. An IPv6 virtual address persists across RP failovers. For this to happen, the virtual IPv6 address must share a common IPv6 subnet with a Management Ethernet interface on both RPs.

If you disable the ipv6 virtual address command with the vrf keyword, the virtual IP address is unconfigured for the corresponding VRF or for the default if no VRF is specified. This results in the removal of the entry for the virtual IP address in the VRF table and in the ARP cache.

The default VRF is chosen when no VRF is specified. The virtual IP address is activated on a management interface that is attached to a default VRF.

The use-as-src-addr keyword eliminates the need for configuring a loopback interface as the source interface (that is, update source) for management applications. When an update source is not configured, management applications allow the transport processes (TCP, UDP, raw_ip) to pick a suitable source address. The transport processes, in turn, consult the FIB to do so. If a Management Ethernet's IP address is picked as the source address and if the use-as-src-addr keyword is configured, then the transport processes replace the Management Ethernet's IP address with a relevant virtual IP address. This functionality works across RP switchovers.

local pool

To create one or more local address pools from which IP addresses are assigned when a peer connects, use the local pool command in XR Config mode. To restore the default behavior, use the no form of this command.

local pool [ipv4] [vrf vrf_name] {poolname | default} first-ip-address [last-ip-address]

no local pool [ipv4] [vrf vrf_name] {poolname | default} first-ip-address [last-ip-address]

Syntax Description


vrf	Specifies that a VRF name will be given. If is parameter is missing, the default VRF is assumed.
`vrf_name`	Specifies the name of the VRF to which the addresses of the pool belongs. If no name is given, the default VRF is assumed.
default	Creates a default local IPv4 address pool that is used if no other pool is named.
`poolname`	Specifies the name of the local IPv4 address pool.
`first-ip-address`	Specifies the first address in an IPv4 address range. If high-IP-address is not specified, the address range is considered to have only one address.
`last-ip-address`	(Optional) Specifies the last address in an IPv4 address range. If high-IP-address is not specified, the address range is considered to have only one address.

Command Default

Special default pool if VRF is not specified. By default, this functionality is disabled.

Command Modes

XR Config mode

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to create local address pools to use in assigning IP addresses when a peer connects. You can also add range of IP addresses to an existing pool. If no pool name is specified, the pool with the name "default" is used.

The optional vrf keyword and associated vrf name allows the association of an IPv4 address pool with a named VRF. Any IPv4 address pool created without the vrf keyword automatically becomes a member of a default VRF. An IPv4 address pool name can be associated with only one VRF. Subsequent use of the same pool name, within a pool group, is treated as an extension of that pool, and any attempt to associate an existing local IPv4 address pool name with a different VRF is rejected. Therefore, each use of a pool name is an implicit selection of the associated VRF.

Note

To reduce the chances of inadvertent generation of duplicate addresses, the system allows creation of the default pool only in the default VRF.

All IPv4 address pools within a VRF are checked to prevent overlapping addresses; however, addresses may overlap across different VRFs.

Task ID

Examples

The following example creates a local IPv4 address pool named “pool2,” which contains all IPv4 addresses in the range 172.16.23.0 to 172.16.23.255:


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# local pool ipv4 pool2 172.16.23.0 172.16.23.255

The following example configures a pool of 1024 IP addresses:


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#no local pool ipv4 default 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool ipv4 default 10.1.1.0 10.1.4.255

Note

It is good practice to precede local pool definitions with a no form of the command to remove any existing pool, because the specification of an existing pool name is taken as a request to extend that pool with the new IPv4 addresses. To extend the pool, the no form of the command is not applicable.

The following example configures multiple ranges of IPv4 addresses into one pool:


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool ipv4 default 10.1.1.0 10.1.9.255 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool ipv4 default 10.2.1.0 10.2.9.255

The following examples show how to configure two pool groups and IPv4 address pools in the base system group:


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool vrf grp1 ipv4 p1_g1 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.50 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool vrf grp1 ipv4 p2_g1 10.1.1.100 10.1.1.110 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool vrf grp2 ipv4 p1_g2 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.40 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool ipv4 lp1 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.10 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool vrf grp1 ipv4 p3_g1 10.1.2.1 10.1.2.30 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool vrf grp2 ipv4 p2_g2 10.1.1.50 10.1.1.70 
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#local pool ipv4 lp2 10.1.2.1 10.1.2.10

In this example:

VRF grp1 consists of pools p1_g1, p2_g1, and p3_g1.
VRF grp2 consists of pools p1_g2 and p2_g2.
Pools lp1 and lp2 are not explicitly associated with a vrf and are therefore members of the default vrf.

Note

IPv4 address 10.1.1.1 overlaps in vrfs grp1, grp2 and the default vrf . There is no overlap within any vrf that includes the default vrf.

The following examples shows the configurations of IP address pools and groups for use by a VPN and VRF:

These examples show configuration of pools in two VRFs and the default VRF:

VRF vpn1 consists of pools p1_vpn1, p2_vpn1, and p3_vpn1.
VRF vpn2 consists of pools p1_vpn2 and p2_vpn2.
Pools lp1 and lp2 are not associated with a VRF and therefore belong to the default VRF.

Note

IPv4 address 10.1.1.1 overlaps across VRFs vpn1, vpn2 and the default VRF . There is no overlap within any VRF.

The VPN requires a configuration that selects the proper vrf by selecting the proper pool based on remote user data. Each user in a given VPN can select an address space using the pool and associated vrf appropriate for that VPN. Duplicate addresses in other VPNs (other vrfs) are not a concern, because the address space of a VPN is specific to that VPN. In the example, a user in VRF vpn1 is associated with a combination of the pools p1_vpn1, p2_vpn1, and p3_vpn1, and is allocated addresses from that address space. Addresses are returned to the same pool from which they were allocated.

show arm conflicts

To display IPv4 or IPv6 address conflict information identified by the Address Repository Manager (ARM), use the show arm conflicts command in XR EXEC mode.

Table 9. show ipv6 interface Command Field Descriptions

Field

Description

Bundle-Ether1 is Down

Indicates whether the interface hardware is currently active (whether line signal is present) and whether it has been taken down by an administrator. If the interface hardware is usable, the interface is marked “Up.” For an interface to be usable, both the interface hardware and line protocol must be up.

line protocol is Up (or down)

Indicates whether the software processes that handle the line protocol consider the line usable (that is, whether keepalives are successful). If the interface can provide two-way communication, the line protocol is marked “Up.” For an interface to be usable, both the interface hardware and line protocol must be up.

IPv6 is enabled, stalled, disabled (stalled and disabled are not shown in sample output)

Indicates that IPv6 is enabled, stalled, or disabled on the interface. If IPv6 is enabled, the interface is marked “enabled.” If duplicate address detection processing identified the link-local address of the interface as being a duplicate address, the processing of IPv6 packets is disabled on the interface and the interface is marked “stalled.” If IPv6 is not enabled, the interface is marked “disabled.”

link-local address

Displays the link-local address assigned to the interface.

TENTATIVE

The state of the address in relation to duplicate address detection. States can be any of the following:

duplicate—The address is not unique and is not being used. If the duplicate address is the link-local address of an interface, the processing of IPv6 packets is disabled on that interface.
tentative—Duplicate address detection is either pending or under way on this interface.

Note

If an address does not have one of these states (the state for the address is blank), the address is unique and is being used.

Global unicast addresses

Displays the global unicast addresses assigned to the interface.

ICMP redirects

State of Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) IPv6 redirect messages on the interface (the sending of the messages is enabled or disabled).

ND DAD

State of duplicate address detection on the interface (enabled or disabled).

number of DAD attempts

Number of consecutive neighbor solicitation messages that are sent on the interface while duplicate address detection is performed.

ND reachable time

Displays the neighbor discovery reachable time (in milliseconds) assigned to this interface.

show ipv6 neighbors [type interface-path-id | location node-id]

Syntax Description

type

(Optional) Interface type. For more information, use the question mark (?) online help function.

interface-path-id

(Optional) Physical interface instance or a virtual interface.

Note

Use the show interfaces command to see a list of all interfaces currently configured on the router.

For more information about the syntax for the router, use the question mark (?) online help function.

location node-id

(Optional) Designates a node. The node-id argument is entered in the rack/slot/module notation.

Command Default

All IPv6 neighbor discovery cache information is displayed.

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Table 10. show ipv6 neighbors Command Field Descriptions

Field

Description

IPv6 Address

IPv6 address of neighbor or interface.

Age

Time (in minutes) since the address was confirmed to be reachable. A hyphen (-) indicates a static entry.

Link-layer Addr

MAC address. If the address is unknown, a hyphen (-) is displayed.

State

The state of the neighbor cache entry. These are the states for dynamic entries in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache:

INCMP (incomplete)—Address resolution is being performed on the entry. A neighbor solicitation message has been sent to the solicited-node multicast address of the target, but the corresponding neighbor advertisement message has not yet been received.
reach (reachable)—Positive confirmation was received within the last ReachableTime milliseconds that the forward path to the neighbor was functioning properly. While in reach state, the device takes no special action as packets are sent.
stale—More than ReachableTime milliseconds have elapsed since the last positive confirmation was received that the forward path was functioning properly. While in stale state, the device takes no action until a packet is sent.
delay—More than ReachableTime milliseconds have elapsed since the last positive confirmation was received that the forward path was functioning properly. A packet was sent within the last DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME seconds. If no reachability confirmation is received within DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME seconds of entering the delay state, send a neighbor solicitation message and change the state to probe.
probe—A reachability confirmation is actively sought by resending neighbor solicitation messages every RetransTimer milliseconds until a reachability confirmation is received.

These are the possible states for static entries in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache:

reach (reachable)—The interface for this entry is up.
INCMP (incomplete)—The interface for this entry is down.

Note

Reachability detection is not applied to static entries in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache; therefore, the descriptions for the INCMP (incomplete) and reach (reachable) states are different for dynamic and static cache entries.

Interface

Interface from which the address is reachable.
