Service Port IPv6 Neighbors
The Service
Port IPv6 Neighbors page provides information about IPv6 neighbors the device
has discovered through the service port by using the Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP). The
manually configured static service port IPv6 neighbors are also displayed.

Service Port IPv6 Neighbors Fields
Field |
Description |
IPv6 Addresses |
Displays the IP address of the neighbor. |
MAC Address |
Displays the MAC address of the neighbor. |
Type |
The type of the neighbor entry, which is one of the following:
- Static: The neighbor entry is manually
configured.
- Dynamic: The neighbor entry is dynamically
resolved.
- Local: The neighbor entry is local.
- Other: The neighbor entry is unknown.
|
Is Router |
Whether the neighbor is a router. If the neighbor is a router, the value is TRUE. If the neighbor is not a router, the value is FALSE. |
Neighbor State |
Specifies the state of the neighbor cache entry. Following are the states for dynamic entries in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache:
- Reachable: Positive confirmation was received
within the last Reachable Time 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.
- Unknown: The reachability status cannot be
determined.

Last Updated |
Displays the time since the address was confirmed to be reachable. |
Use the buttons to perform the following tasks:
- To add service port static IPv6 neighbor entry, click Add and configure the desired settings.
- To remove service port static IPv6 neighbor entries, select each static neighbor entry to remove and click Remove.
After you click
Add
or Edit, a window opens and allows you to configure Service Port
IPv6 Neighbor settings.
You can configure the
IPv6 address and the MAC address.
