IP Addressing 211
To configure a router:
1
Click System > IPv6 Addressing > IPv6 Default Gateway in the tree view
to display the
IPv6 Default Gateway: Summary page.
The previously-defined routers are displayed with the following fields:
–
Default Gateway IPv6 Address — The router’s address.
–
Interface — The interface on which the router is accessed.
–
Ty p e — The means by which the default gateway was configured. The
possible options are:
•
Static — The default gateway is user-defined.
•
Dynamic — The default gateway is dynamically configured
through router advertisement.
–
State (for R1-2401)— The router’s status. The possible options are:
•
Incomplete — Address resolution is in progress and the link-layer
address of the default gateway has not yet been determined.
•
Reachable — The default gateway is known to have been
reachable recently (within tens of seconds ago).
•
State — (for R1-2401)The default gateway is no longer known to
be reachable but until traffic is sent to the default gateway, no
attempt is made to verify its reachability.
•
Delay — The default gateway is no longer known to be reachable,
and traffic has recently been sent to the default gateway. Rather
than probe the default gateway 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 default gateway is no longer known to be reachable,
and Unicast Neighbor Solicitation probes are being sent to verify
reachability.
•
Unreachable — No reachability confirmation was received.
