Chapter 35 Configuring IPv6 Host Functions
Configuring IPv6
ND router advertisements are sent every 200 seconds
ND router advertisements live for 1800 seconds
Hosts use stateless autoconfig for addresses.
Configuring IPv6 ICMP Rate Limiting
ICMP rate limiting is enabled by default with a default interval between error messages of 100
milliseconds and a bucket size (maximum number of tokens to be stored in a bucket) of 10.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to change the ICMP rate-limiting parameters:
To return to the default configuration, use the no ipv6 icmp error-interval global configuration
command.
This example shows how to configure an IPv6 ICMP error message interval of 50 milliseconds and a
bucket size of 20 tokens.
Switch(config)#ipv6 icmp error-interval 50 20
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
ipv6 icmp error-interval interval [bucketsize] Configure the interval and bucket size for IPv6 ICMP error
messages:
• interval—The interval (in milliseconds) between tokens
being added to the bucket. The range is from 0 to
2147483647 milliseconds.
• bucketsize—(Optional) The maximum number of tokens
stored in the bucket. The range is from 1 to 200.
Step 3
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
show ipv6 interface [interface-id] Verify your entries.
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
