Router Discovery

Configuring ICMPv6 Router Discovery

The ICMPv6 Router Discovery Protocol allows hosts running an ICMPv6 router discovery client to locate neighboring routers dynamically as well as to learn prefixes and configuration parameters related to address autoconfiguration. Nokia implements only the ICMPv6 router discovery server portion, which means that the Nokia platform can advertise itself as a candidate default router, but it will not adopt a default router using the router discovery protocol.

Beginning with IPSO 3.8.1 and as part of the new support of VRRP for IPv6 interfaces, only the router in a VRRP master state sends router discovery advertisements, and the advertisements are sent with the virtual IP address as the source address and the virtual MAC address as the MAC address. Routers in a VRRP backup state do not send router discovery advertisements. When VRRP failover occurs, the new master begins to send out router discovery advertisements. For
