Section 5 - Advanced Network Conguration
Field Description
Status
Enable or disable the RADVD process here to allow stateless auto conguration of the
IPv6 LAN network.
Advertise Mode
Two Advertise Modes:
• Unsolicited Multicast: select to send router advertisements (RA’s) to all interfaces
belonging to the multicast group.
• Unicast Only: This option restricts advertisements to well known IPv6 addresses
only (RA’s are sent to the interface belonging to the known address only).
Advertise Interval
If Advertise Mode = Unsolicited Multicast, this sets the maximum advertise interval. The
advertise interval used when RADVD is enabled is a random value between Minimum
Router Advertisement Interval and Maximum Router Advertisement Interval. The
minimum router advertisement interval is 1/3 of this congured value, and the default
is 30 seconds.
RA Flags
The router advertisements (RA’s) can be sent with one or both of these ags: Managed
and Other.. Chose Managed to use the administered /stateful protocol for address auto
conguration. If the Other ag is selected the host uses administered/stateful protocol
for non-address auto conguration.
Router Preference
Choose between Low/Medium/High for the preference associated with the RADVD
process of the controller. This feature is useful if there are other RADVD enabled devices
on the LAN. The default is high.
MTU
This is used in RA’s to ensure all nodes on the network use the same MTU value in the
cases where the LAN MTU is not well known. The default is 1500
Router Lifetime The lifetime in seconds of the route. The default is 3600 seconds.
