MTU: This is the Maximum Transmission Unit (in bytes) allowed for frames on the path to the indicated router.

Hop Limit: The maximum number of router hops allowed.

Prefix Advertised: Lists the prefix and prefix size (number of leftmost bits in an address) originating with the indicated router.

Valid Lifetime: The total time the address is available, including the preferred lifetime and the additional time (if any) allowed for the address to exist in the deprecated state. Refer to “Address Lifetimes” on page 4-32.

Preferred Lifetime: The length of time during which the address can be used freely as both a source and a destination address for traffic exchanges with other devices. Refer to “Address Lifetimes” on page 4-32.

On/Off Link: Indicates whether the entry source is on the same
