Usage
Information
By default, all prefixes configured in IPv6 addresses on an interface advertise. To advertise all default
parameters in the subnet prefixes on an interface, enter the default keyword.
If you configure a prefix with valid or preferred lifetime values, the ipv6 nd prefix default no
autoconfig command does not apply the default prefix values.
On-link determination is used to forward IPv6 packets to a destination IPv6 address.
Examples
Enable router advertisements
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ipv6 address 2001:0db8:2000::1/64
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ipv6 nd send-ra
Change default settings for interface subnet prefixes
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ipv6 nd prefix default lifetime infinite infinite
Disable advertising an interface subnet prefix
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ipv6 nd prefix 2001:0db8:2000::/64 no-advertise
Advertise prefix for which there is no interface address
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ipv6 nd prefix 2001:0db8:3000::/64 no-autoconfig
