Defining IPv6 Neighbors

The IPv6 Neighbors Page contains information for defining IPv6 Neighbors which is similar to the functionality of the IPv4 Address Resolution Protocol (ARP). IPv6 Neighbors enables detecting Link Local addresses within the same subnet, and includes a database for maintaining reachability information about the active neighbors paths.

The device supports a total of up to 256 neighbors obtained either statically or dynamically.

When removing an IPv6 interface, all neighbors learned statically and dynamically are removed.

To open the IPv6 Neighbors page, click SystemIP AddressingIPv6 Neighbors in the tree view.
