Broadband Network Gateway Command Reference for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers

ipv6 nd dad attempts (BNG)

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

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 4.3.0	This command was supported in the dynamic template configuration mode for BNG.
Release 3.7.2	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 Global Configuration mode.

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 GigabitEthernet

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 nd reachable-time milliseconds

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

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 Global Configuration mode.

For Cloud Native BNG, ensure you run this command in the cnbng-nal configuration mode.

ipv6 nd start-ra-on-ipv6-enable

To automatically send IPv6 router advertisements to a subscriber interface after configuring IPv6 (by using ipv6-enable command), use the ipv6 nd start-ra-on-ipv6 command in the dynamic template or cnbng-nal configuration mode. To disable the IPv6 router advertisements, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 nd [start-ra-on-ipv6-enable]

Syntax Description


	This command has no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

On a dual stack environment, the IPv6 router advertisements are supported by default. The default behavior is that IPv6 neighbor discovery(ND) waits for the IPv6 stack to boot up before triggering a router advertisement.

Command Modes

Dynamic template configuration mode (for BNG)

cnbng-nal configuration (for Cloud Native BNG)

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.10.1	This command was supported in the cnbng-nal configuration mode for Cloud Native BNG.
Release 6.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

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 Global Configuration mode.

For Cloud Native BNG, ensure you run this command in the cnbng-nal configuration mode.

This command can be used only for IPoE subscriber sessions

ipv6 nd suppress-ra (BNG)

To suppress IPv6 router advertisement transmissions on a LAN interface, use the ipv6 nd suppress-ra command in an appropriate configuration mode. To reenable the sending of IPv6 router advertisement transmissions on a LAN interface, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 nd suppress-ra

Syntax Description

This command has no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

IPv6 router advertisements are automatically sent on other types of interlaces if IPv6 unicast routing is enabled on the interfaces. IPv6 router advertisements are not sent on other types of interfaces.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (not applicable for BNG)

Dynamic template configuration (for BNG)

cnbng-nal configuration (for Cloud Native BNG)

Command History


Release	Modification
Release 7.10.1	This command was supported in the cnbng-nal configuration mode for Cloud Native BNG.
Release 4.3.0	This command was supported in the dynamic template configuration mode for BNG.
Release 3.7.2	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use the no ipv6 nd suppress-ra command to enable the sending of IPv6 router advertisement transmissions on non-LAN interface types (for example, serial or tunnel interfaces).

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 Global Configuration mode.
