Using the adjacency table

This feature can be used only to display the adjacency table on tunnel interfaces. For information about tunnel interfaces, see "Configuring tunneling."

Overview

The adjacency table stores information about directly connected neighbors for IP forwarding. The neighbor information in this chapter refers to non-Ethernet neighbor information.

This table is not user configurable. The neighbor information is generated, updated, and deleted by link layer protocols through negotiation or through manual configuration. An adjacency entry includes the following information:

·     Neighbor network layer address (next hop).

·     Output interface.

·     Link layer protocol type.

·     Link layer address.

When forwarding an IP packet, the device performs the following tasks:

·     Searches the FIB to find the output interface and next hop.

·     Uses the output interface and next hop address to search the adjacency table for link layer forwarding information.

 

 

NOTE:

Ethernet and non-Ethernet neighbor information are stored and managed together.

 

You can use the display adjacent-table command and the display ipv6 adjacent-table command to display the adjacency table information.

The following table shows the items in an adjacency table output:

 

Item

Description

IP address

IP address of the next hop in the FIB table. This address is used for adjacency table lookup.

IPv6 address

IPv6 address of the next hop in the FIB table. This address is used for adjacency table lookup.

Routing interface

Output interface in the matching route entry. This interface is used for adjacency table lookup, and it can be logical or physical.

Physical interface

Output physical interface that sends matching packets.

·     If the routing interface is physical, the routing interface and physical interface are the same.

·     If the routing interface is logical, the routing interface and physical interface are different.

Logical interface

Logical interface for sending packets.

Service type

Link layer protocol type.

Action type

Action to be taken on the matching packet: Forwarding or Drop.

Link media type

Related to the link layer protocol used by the routing interface.

·     P2P—Point-to-point link.

·     NBMA—Non-broadcast multi-access link.

Link head information(IP)

Link layer header for IP forwarding.

Link head information(IPv6)

Link layer header for IPv6 forwarding.

Link head information(MPLS)

Link layer header for MPLS forwarding.

 

Displaying and maintainig the adjacency table

To display adjacency table entries, use one of the following commands in any view:

 

Task

Command

(In standalone mode.) Display IPv4 adjacency table information.

display adjacent-table { all | physical-interface interface-type interface-number | routing-interface interface-type interface-number | slot slot-number } [ count | verbose ]

(In IRF mode.) Display IPv4 adjacency table information.

display adjacent-table { all | physical-interface interface-type interface-number | routing-interface interface-type interface-number | chassis chassis-number slot slot-number } [ count | verbose ]

(In standalone mode.) Display IPv6 adjacency table information.

display ipv6 adjacent-table { all | physical-interface interface-type interface-number | routing-interface interface-type interface-number | slot slot-number } [ count | verbose ]

(In IRF mode.) Display IPv6 adjacency table information.

display ipv6 adjacent-table { all | physical-interface interface-type interface-number | routing-interface interface-type interface-number | chassis chassis-number slot slot-number } [ count | verbose ]
