- State - 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). • Stale - 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. 2 To add an IPv6 default gateway, click Add, and enter the fields: - IPv6 Address Type - Displays that the IP address was added to the interface through a link local address. - Link Local Interface - Displays the outgoing interface through which the default gateway can be reached. - Default Gateway IPv6 Address - Enter the Link Local IPv6 address of the default gateway.
