icmpV6NeighborDiscovery
icmpV6neighborDiscovery - configure icmpV6 neighbor discovery messages
SYNOPSIS
icmpV6neighborDiscovery sub-command options
DESCRIPTION
The icmpV6neighborDiscovery command is used to configure icmpV6 neighbor discovery messages
STANDARD OPTIONS
type
Read-only The type of ICMPv6 message to be sent. The messageType must first be set in the icmpV6 command by calling setType. (default = 133)
code
Read-only. Always 0.
checksum
Read-only. The 16-bit ICMPv6 checksum. This is the ones complement of the ones complement sum of the whole ICMPv6 message, which starts at the message type field. The 'whole' message includes the IPv6 header and extension header fields.
currentHopLimit
(for RouterAdvertisementMessage) Default value for the IP Header Hop Count field for outbound IP packets.
destAddress
(for Redirect Message) This is the IPv6 address of the destination. If the destination is a neighbor, this address is also used as the Target address.
enableManagedAddressConfig
true/false
(for RouterAdvertisementMessage) If true, hosts use the stateful (administered) protocol for auto-configuration of addresses.
enableOtherStateful Config
true/false
(for RouterAdvertisementMessage) If true, hosts use the stateful (administered) protocol for auto-configuration of non-addressing (other) information.
enableRouter
true/false
(for NeighborAdvertisementMessage) If true, this sender is a router (not a host). (default = false)
enableSolicited
true/false
(for NeighborAdvertisementMessage) If true, this neighbor advertisement is sent in response to a neighbor solicitation message. (default = false)
enableOverride
true/false
(for NeighborAdvertisementMessage) If true, the information in this advertisement should override the existing entry and update the link layer address. Not for use with anycast addresses. (default = false)
reachableTime
(for RouterAdvertisementMessage) (In milliseconds) Amount of time that a neighbor is assumed to be reachable, following a confirmation of reachable.
retransTimer
(for RouterAdvertisementMessage) (In milliseconds) Time interval between Neighbor Solicitation messages.
routerLifetime
(for RouterAdvertisementMessage) Default router lifetime, in seconds. If Router Lifetime = 0, this is NOT a default router.
targetAddress
(for NeighborAdvertisement, NeighborSolicitation, or Redirect Message) The IPv6 address of the neighbor (target) to which the solicitation was sent. (MUST NOT be multicast IPv6 address.)
For NeighborAdvertisement message:
- For solicited advertisements: It is the target address in the Neighbor Solicitation Message.
- For unsolicited advertisements: It is the address with a link-layer address which has changed.
For Redirect message:
- This is the same address as the Destination address, if the destination is a neighbor.
- If the target is not a neighbor, this is the address of a router which is a better first-hop node.
COMMANDS
The icmpV6neighborDiscovery command is invoked with the following sub-commands. If no sub-command is specified, returns a list of all sub-commands available.
icmpV6NeighborDiscovery setDefault
Sets to IxTclHal default values for all configuration options.
icmpV6NeighborDiscovery addOption optionType
Adds specified optionType to the option list. Specific errors are:
- Invalid option.
icmpV6NeighborDiscovery delOption
Deletes the current option. Specific errors are:
- No option found.
icmpV6NeighborDiscovery getFirstOption
Gets the first option from the option list. Specific errors are:
- No option found.
icmpV6NeighborDiscovery getNextOption
Gets the next option from the option list. Specific errors are:
- No option found.
icmpV6NeighborDiscovery clearAllOptions
Clears all the options.
