ip verify unicast source reachable-via
ip verify unicast source reachable-via
To enable and configure unicast RPF checks on a IPv4 interface, use the ip verify unicast source
reachable-via command. To disable unicast RPF, use the no form of this command.
ip verify unicast source reachable-via rx allow-default
no ip verify unicast source reachable-via
Syntax Description
Defaults Disabled
Command Modes Interface configuration mode
Command History
Usage Guidelines In basic RX mode, unicast RPF ensures a source address must be reachable on the arrived interface. For
example, the source must be reachable without load balancing.
Note Unicast RPF is an input function and is applied only on the input interface of a router at the upstream
end of a connection.
Do not use unicast RPF on internal network interfaces. Internal interfaces might have routing asymmetry,
which means that there are multiple routes to the source of a packet. Apply unicast RPF only where there
is natural or configured symmetry.
Examples This example shows how to enable unicast RPF exist-only checking mode:
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/1
Switch(config-if)# ip verify unicast source reachable-via rx allow-default
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch#
rx Verifies that the source address is reachable on the interface where the packet was
received.
allow-default Verifies that the default route matches the source address.
Release Modification
