xStack® DGS-3400 Series Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Managed Switch VLAN Name Interface Admin State DHCPv6 Client State IPv6 Address NS Retransmit Time Hop Limit Prefix Preferred Life Time Valid Life Time On Link Flag Autonomous Flag RA Router Advertisement RA Router Lifetime (sec) RA Reachable Time RA Retransmit Time (ms) This field states the VLAN Name directly associated with this interface. Use the pull-down menu to enable or disable configuration on this interface. Use the pull-down menu to enable or disable the DHCPv6 client state of the interface. Use this field to set a Global Unicast Address for the Switch. This address will be used to access the network outside of the local link. Use this field to set the interval, in seconds that this Switch will produce Neighbor Solicitation packets to be sent out over the local network. This is used to discover IPv6 neighbors on the local link. The user may select a time between 0 and 65535 milliseconds. Very fast intervals, represented by a low number, are not recommended for this field. This field sets the number of nodes that this Router Advertisement packet will pass before being dropped. This number is set to depreciate by one after every node it reaches and will be dropped once the Hop Limit reaches 0. The user may set the Hop Limit between 0 and 255 with a default value of 64. Prefix Options Use this field to set a prefix for Global Unicast IPv6 addresses to be assigned to other nodes on the link-local network. This prefix is carried in the Router Advertisement message to be shared on the link-local network. The user must first have a Global Unicast Address set for the Switch. This field states the time that this prefix is advertised as being preferred on the link local network, when using stateless address configuration. The user may configure a time between 0 and 4294967295 milliseconds, with a default setting of 604800 milliseconds. This field states the time that this prefix is advertised as valid on the link local network, when using stateless address configuration. The user may configure a time between 0 and 4294967295 milliseconds. Setting this field to Enabled will denote, within the IPv6 packet, that the IPv6 prefix configured here is assigned to this link-local network. Once traffic has been successfully sent to these nodes with this specific IPv6 prefix, the nodes will be considered reachable on the link-local network. Setting this field to Enabled will denote that this prefix may be used to autoconfigure IPv6 addresses on the link-local network. Router Advertisement Settings Use this pull-down menu to enable or disable the switch as being capable of accepting solicitation from a neighbor, and thus becoming an IPv6 neighbor. Once enabled, this Switch is now capable of producing Router Advertisement messages to be returned to querying neighbors. This time represents the validity of this interface to be the default router for the link-local network. A value of 0 represents that this Switch should not be recognized as the default router for this link-local network. The user may set a time between 0 and 9000 seconds with a default setting of 1800 seconds. This field will set the time that remote IPv6 nodes are considered reachable. In essence, this is the Neighbor Unreachability Detection field once confirmation of the access to this node has been made. The user may set a time between 0 and 36000000 milliseconds with a default setting of 1200000 milliseconds. A very low value is not recommended. Used to set an interval time between 0 and 4294967295 milliseconds for the dispatch of router advertisements by this interface over the link-local network, in response to a Neighbor Solicitation message. If this Switch is set as the default router for this local link, this value should not exceed the value stated in the Life Time field previously mentioned. Setting this field to zero will specify that this switch will not specify the Retransmit Time for the link-local network. (therefore it will be specified by another router on the link-local network. The default value is 0 milliseconds. 20
