ipv6 vrrp-suppress-interface-ra

Suppresses interface router advertisement (RA) when VRRPv3 is configured on an interface.

Syntax

ipv6 vrrp-suppress-interface-ra
no ipv6 vrrp-suppress-interface-ra

Command Default

Interface RA is enabled.

Modes

Interface subtype configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

Enter no ipv6 vrrp-suppress-interface-ra to remove the suppression of interface RA.

Router advertisements are sent by the VRRP master device and contain the link-local virtual IP address and the virtual MAC address. For network security reasons, if you do not want the MAC addresses of interfaces to be viewed, you can disable RA messages.

Examples

This example suppresses interface RA on a virtual Ethernet (VE) interface:

device# configure terminal
device(config)# ipv6 protocol vrrp
device(config)# interface ve 2019
device(config-Ve-2019)# ipv6 vrrp-suppress-interface-ra
