Syntax
ipv6 nd dad attempts
value
no ipv6 nd dad attempts
Parameters
• value —The number of neighbor solicitation messages. The acceptable
range is from 0 to 600. Configuring a value of 0 disables duplicate address
detection processing on the specified interface; a value of 1 configures a
single transmission without follow-up transmissions.
Default Configuration
1
Command Mode

User Guidelines
Duplicate address detection verifies the uniqueness of new Unicast IPv6
addresses before the addresses are assigned to interfaces (the new addresses
remain in a tentative state while duplicate address detection is performed).
Duplicate address detection uses neighbor solicitation messages to verify the
uniqueness of Unicast IPv6 addresses.
The DupAddrDetectTransmits node configuration variable (as specified in RFC
4862, IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration) is used to automatically
determine the number of consecutive neighbor solicitation messages that are sent
on an interface, while duplicate address detection is performed on a tentative
Unicast IPv6 address.
The interval between duplicate address detection, neighbor solicitation messages
(the duplicate address detection timeout interval) is specified by the neighbor
discovery-related variable RetransTimer (as specified in RFC 4861, Neighbor
Discovery for IPv6), which is used to determine the time between retransmissions
of neighbor solicitation messages to a neighbor when resolving the address or
when probing the reachability of a neighbor. This is the same management
variable used to specify the interval for neighbor solicitation messages during
address resolution and neighbor unreachability detection. Use the ipv6 nd
ns-interval command to configure the interval between neighbor solicitation
messages that are sent during duplicate address detection.
Duplicate address detection is suspended on interfaces that are administratively
down. While an interface is administratively down, the Unicast IPv6 addresses
