ipv6 address

Use ipv6 address to configure an IPv6 global unicast address for an interface.

Use undo ipv6 address to delete an IPv6 global unicast address of the interface.

Syntax

ipv6 address { ipv6-address prefix-length | ipv6-address/prefix-length }

undo ipv6 address [ ipv6-address prefix-length | ipv6-address/prefix-length ]

Default

No IPv6 global unicast address is configured for an interface.

Views

Interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

ipv6-address: Specifies an IPv6 address.

prefix-length: Specifies a prefix length in the range of 1 to 128.

Usage guidelines

Like public IPv4 addresses, IPv6 global unicast addresses are assigned to ISPs. This type of address allows for prefix aggregation to reduce the number of global routing entries.

If you do not specify any parameters, the undo ipv6 address command deletes all IPv6 addresses of an interface.

Examples

# Set the IPv6 global unicast address of VLAN-interface 100 to 2001::1 with prefix length 64.

Method 1:

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 100

[Sysname-Vlan-interface100] ipv6 address 2001::1/64

Method 2:

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 100

[Sysname-Vlan-interface100] ipv6 address 2001::1 64

ipv6 address anycast

Use ipv6 address anycast to configure an IPv6 anycast address for an interface.

Use undo ipv6 address anycast to delete the IPv6 anycast address of the interface.

Syntax

ipv6 address { ipv6-address prefix-length | ipv6-address/prefix-length } anycast

undo ipv6 address { ipv6-address prefix-length | ipv6-address/prefix-length } anycast

Default

No IPv6 anycast address is configured for an interface.

ipv6 address auto

Use ipv6 address auto to enable the stateless address autoconfiguration feature on an interface, so that the interface can automatically generate a global unicast address.

Use undo ipv6 address auto to disable this feature.

Syntax

ipv6 address auto

undo ipv6 address auto

Default

The stateless address autoconfiguration feature is disabled.

Views

Interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

After a global unicast address is generated through stateless autoconfiguration, a link-local address is generated automatically.

To delete the global unicast address and the link-local address that are automatically generated, use either of the following commands:

· undo ipv6 address auto

· undo ipv6 address

Examples

# Enable stateless address autoconfiguration on VLAN-interface 100.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 100

[Sysname-Vlan-interface100] ipv6 address auto

ipv6 address auto link-local

Use ipv6 address auto link-local to automatically generate a link-local address for an interface.

Use undo ipv6 address auto link-local to restore the default.

Syntax

ipv6 address auto link-local

undo ipv6 address auto link-local

Default

No link-local address is configured on an interface. A link-local address is automatically generated after an IPv6 global unicast address is configured for the interface.

Views

Interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

Link-local addresses are used for neighbor discovery and stateless autoconfiguration on the local link. Packets using link-local addresses as the source or destination addresses cannot be forwarded to other links.

After an IPv6 global unicast address is configured for an interface, a link-local address is automatically generated. This link-local address is the same as the one generated by using the ipv6 address auto link-local command.

The undo ipv6 address auto link-local command deletes only the link-local addresses generated through the ipv6 address auto link-local command. If the undo command is executed on an interface with an IPv6 global unicast address configured, the interface still has a link-local address.

You can also manually assign an IPv6 link-local address for an interface by using the ipv6 address link-local command. Manual assignment takes precedence over automatic generation for IPv6 link-local addresses.

· If you first use automatic generation and then manual assignment, the manually assigned link-local address overwrites the automatically generated address.

· If you first use manual assignment and then automatic generation, both of the following occur:

¡ The automatically generated link-local address does not take effect.

¡ The link-local address of an interface is still the manually assigned address.

If you delete the manually assigned address, the automatically generated link-local address takes effect.

Examples

# Configure VLAN-interface 100 to automatically generate a link-local address.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 100

[Sysname-Vlan-interface100] ipv6 address auto link-local

ipv6 address eui-64

Use ipv6 address eui-64 to configure an EUI-64 IPv6 address for an interface.

Use undo ipv6 address eui-64 to delete an EUI-64 IPv6 address from an interface.

Syntax

ipv6 address { ipv6-address prefix-length | ipv6-address/prefix-length } eui-64

undo ipv6 address [ ipv6-address prefix-length | ipv6-address/prefix-length ] eui-64

Default

No EUI-64 IPv6 address is configured for an interface.

Views

Interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

ipv6-address/prefix-length: Specifies an IPv6 address and IPv6 prefix length. The ipv6-address and prefix-length arguments jointly specify the prefix of an EUI-64 IPv6 address. The value range for the prefix-length argument is 1 to 64.

Usage guidelines

An EUI-64 IPv6 address is generated based on the specified prefix and the automatically generated interface ID. To display the EUI-64 IPv6 address, use the display ipv6 interface command.

The prefix length of an EUI-64 IPv6 address cannot be greater than 64.

Examples

# Configure an EUI-64 IPv6 address for VLAN-interface 100. The prefix of the address is the same as that of 2001::1/64, and the interface ID is generated based on the MAC address of the device.

Method 1:

Parameters

ipv6-address: Specifies an IPv6 link-local address. The first 10 bits of an address must be 1111111010 (binary). The first group of hexadecimals in the address must be FE80 to FEBF.

Usage guidelines

Manual assignment takes precedence over automatic generation.

If you use automatic generation, and then use manual assignment, the manually assigned link-local address overwrites the one that is automatically generated.

If you use manual assignment and then use automatic generation, both of the following occur:

· The automatically generated link-local address does not take effect.

· The manually assigned link-local address of an interface remains.

After you delete the manually assigned address, the automatically generated link-local address takes effect. For automatic generation of an IPv6 link-local address, see the ipv6 address auto link-local command.

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

prefix-number: Specifies an IPv6 prefix by its ID in the range of 1 to 1024. The specified IPv6 prefix can be manually configured or obtained through DHCPv6.

sub-prefix: Specifies the sub-prefix bit and host bit for the IPv6 global unicast address.

prefix-length: Specifies the sub-prefix length in the range of 1 to 128.

Usage guidelines

This command enables an interface to automatically generate an IPv6 global unicast address based on the specified IPv6 prefix, sub-prefix bit, and host bit.

An interface can generate only one IPv6 global unicast address based on the prefix specified by using the ipv6 address command. To configure the interface to generate a new IPv6 address, execute the undo ipv6 address command to delete the configuration, and then execute the ipv6 address command.

Examples

# Configure a static IPv6 prefix AAAA::/16 and assign ID 1 to the prefix. Configure VLAN-interface 100 to use this prefix to generate the IPv6 address AAAA:CCCC:DDDD::10/32 and advertise this prefix.

Parameters

value: Specifies the number of hops, in the range of 1 to 255.

Usage guidelines

The hop limit determines the number of hops that an IPv6 packet generated by the device can travel.

The device advertises the hop limit in RA messages. All RA message receivers use the advertised value to fill in the Hop Limit field for IPv6 packets to be sent. To disable the device from advertising the hop limit, use the ipv6 nd ra hop-limit unspecified command.

Examples

# Set the maximum number of hops to 100.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

ICMPv6 time exceeded messages are sent to the source of IPv6 packets after the device discards IPv6 packets because hop or reassembly times out.

To prevent too many ICMPv6 error messages from affecting device performance, disable this feature. Even with the feature disabled, the device still sends fragment reassembly time exceeded messages.

Examples

# Disable sending ICMPv6 time exceeded messages.

Use undo ipv6 icmpv6 error-interval to restore the default.

Syntax

ipv6 icmpv6 error-interval interval [ bucketsize ]

undo ipv6 icmpv6 error-interval

Default

The bucket allows a maximum of 10 tokens, and a token is placed in the bucket every 100 milliseconds.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

interval: Specifies the interval for tokens to arrive in the bucket. The value range is 0 to 2147483647 milliseconds. To disable the ICMPv6 rate limit, set the value to 0.

bucketsize: Specifies the maximum number of tokens allowed in the bucket. The value range is 1 to 200.

Usage guidelines

This command limits the rate at which ICMPv6 error messages are sent. Use this command to prevent network congestion caused by excessive ICMPv6 error messages generated within a short period. A token bucket algorithm is used with one token representing one ICMPv6 error message.

A token is placed in the bucket at intervals until the maximum number of tokens that the bucket can hold is reached.

A token is removed from the bucket when an ICMPv6 error message is sent. When the bucket is empty, ICMPv6 error messages are not sent until a new token is placed in the bucket.

Examples

# Set the bucket size to 40 tokens and the interval for tokens to arrive in the bucket to 200 milliseconds for ICMPv6 error messages.

undo ipv6 icmpv6 multicast-echo-reply enable

Default

The device is disabled from replying to multicast echo requests.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

If a host is configured to reply to multicast echo requests, an attacker can use this mechanism to attack the host. For example, the attacker can send an echo request to a multicast address with Host A as the source. All hosts in the multicast group will send echo replies to Host A.

To prevent attacks, do not enable the device to reply to multicast echo requests unless necessary.

Examples

# Enable replying to multicast echo requests.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] ipv6 icmpv6 multicast-echo-reply enable

ipv6 icmpv6 source

Use ipv6 icmpv6 source to specify an IPv6 address as the source address for outgoing ICMPv6 packets.

Use undo ipv6 icmpv6 source to remove the specified IPv6 source address for outgoing ICMPv6 packets.

Syntax

ipv6 icmpv6 source [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ] ipv6-address

undo ipv6 icmpv6 source [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]

Default

No IPv6 source address for outgoing ICMPv6 packets is specified. The device uses the IPv6 address of the sending interface as the source IPv6 address for outgoing ICMPv6 packets.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies an MPLS L3VPN instance to which the specified address belongs. The vpn-instance-name argument represents the VPN instance name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters. If you do not specify a VPN instance, the ipv6-address argument specifies an IPv6 address on the public network. The specified VPN instance must already exist.

ipv6-address: Specifies an IPv6 address.

Usage guidelines

It is a good practice to specify the IPv6 address of the loopback interface as the source IPv6 address for outgoing ping echo request and ICMPv6 error messages. This feature helps users to easily locate the sending device.

Examples

# Specify IPv6 address 1::1 as the source address for outgoing ICMPv6 packets.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] ipv6 icmpv6 source 1::1

ipv6 mtu

Use ipv6 mtu to set the interface MTU for IPv6 packets. The setting defines the largest size of an IPv6 packet that an interface can transmit without fragmentation.

Use undo ipv6 mtu to restore the default MTU.

Syntax

ipv6 mtu size

undo ipv6 mtu

Default

No interface MTU is set.

Views

Interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

size: Specifies the MTU size in bytes. The following are value ranges for different interface types:

· 1280 to 1500 for management Ethernet interfaces and VLAN interfaces.

· 1280 to 64000 for tunnel interfaces.

NOTE:

The S5560S-SI switch series does not support management Ethernet interfaces.

Usage guidelines

If the size of a packet exceeds the MTU of the sending interface, the device discards the packet. If the device is an intermediate device, it also sends the source host an ICMPv6 Packet Too Big message with the MTU of the sending interface. The source host fragments the packets according to the MTU. To avoid this situation, set a proper interface MTU.

Examples

# Set the interface MTU for IPv6 packets to 1280 bytes on VLAN-interface 100.

ipv6 nd autoconfig managed-address-flag

Use ipv6 nd autoconfig managed-address-flag to set the managed address configuration flag (M) to 1 in RA advertisements to be sent.

Use undo ipv6 nd autoconfig managed-address-flag to restore the default.

Syntax

ipv6 nd autoconfig managed-address-flag

undo ipv6 nd autoconfig managed-address-flag

Default

The M flag is set to 0 in RA advertisements. Hosts receiving the advertisements will obtain IPv6 addresses through stateless autoconfiguration.

Views

Interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

The M flag in RA advertisements determines whether receiving hosts use stateful autoconfiguration to obtain IPv6 addresses.

· If the M flag is set to 1 in RA advertisements, receiving hosts use stateful autoconfiguration (for example, from an DHCPv6 server) to obtain IPv6 addresses.

· If the M flag is set to 0 in RA advertisements, receiving hosts use stateless autoconfiguration. Stateless autoconfiguration generates IPv6 addresses according to link-layer addresses and the prefix information in the RA advertisements.

Examples

# Set the M flag to 1 in RA advertisements to be sent.

Usage guidelines

The O flag in RA advertisements determines whether receiving hosts use stateful autoconfiguration to obtain configuration information other than IPv6 addresses.

· If the O flag is set to 1 in RA advertisements, receiving hosts use stateful autoconfiguration (for example, from a DHCPv6 server) to obtain configuration information other than IPv6 addresses.

· If the O flag is set to 0 in RA advertisements, receiving hosts use stateless autoconfiguration to obtain configuration information other than IPv6 addresses.

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

time: Specifies the neighbor reachable time in the range of 1 to 3600000 milliseconds.

Usage guidelines

If the neighbor reachability detection shows that a neighbor is reachable, the device considers the neighbor reachable within the specified reachable time. If the device must send a packet to the neighbor after the specified reachable time expires, the device reconfirms whether the neighbor is reachable. The device sets the specified value as the neighbor reachable time on the local interface and uses the value to fill the Reachable Time field in RA messages to be sent.

Default

No prefix information is configured for RA messages. Instead, the IPv6 address of the interface sending RA messages is used as the prefix information.

If the IPv6 address is manually configured, the prefix uses the fixed valid lifetime 2592000 seconds (30 days) and preferred lifetime 604800 seconds (7 days).

If the IPv6 address is automatically obtained (through DHCP, for example), the prefix uses the valid and preferred lifetime of the IPv6 address.

Views

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

ipv6-prefix: Specifies the IPv6 prefix.

prefix-length: Specifies the prefix length of the IPv6 address.

valid-lifetime: Specifies the valid lifetime of a prefix, in the range of 0 to 4294967295 seconds. The default value is 2592000 seconds (30 days).

preferred-lifetime: Specifies the preferred lifetime of a prefix used for stateless autoconfiguration, in the range of 0 to 4294967295 seconds. The preferred lifetime cannot be longer than the valid lifetime. The default value is 604800 seconds (7 days).

no-autoconfig: Specifies a prefix not to be used for stateless autoconfiguration. If you do not specify this keyword, the prefix is used for stateless autoconfiguration.

off-link: Indicates that the address with the prefix is not directly reachable on the link. If you do not specify this keyword, the address with the prefix is directly reachable on the link.

no-advertise: Disables the device from advertising the prefix specified in this command. If you do not specify this keyword, the device advertises the prefix specified in this command.

Usage guidelines

If the command specifies a prefix the same as the prefix in the IPv6 address of the interface, the interface preferentially uses the prefix configured in this command for RA advertisement.

After hosts on the same link receive RA messages, they can use the prefix information in the RA messages for stateless autoconfiguration.

A prefix specified without a parameter in this command preferentially uses the default settings configured by using the ipv6 nd ra prefix default command. If the default settings are unavailable, the prefix uses the following settings:

· Valid lifetime of 2592000 seconds (30 days).

· Preferred lifetime of 604800 seconds (7 days).

· The prefix is used for stateless autoconfiguration.

· The address with the prefix is directly reachable on the link.

· The prefix is advertised in RA messages.

Parameters

valid-lifetime: Specifies the valid lifetime of a prefix, in the range of 0 to 4294967295 seconds. The default value is 2592000 seconds (30 days).

no-autoconfig: Disables the prefix from being used for stateless autoconfiguration. If you do not specify this keyword, the prefix is used for stateless autoconfiguration.

off-link: Indicates that the address with the prefix is not directly reachable on the link. If you do not specify this keyword, the address with the prefix is directly reachable on the link.

no-advertise: Disables the device from advertising the prefix. If you do not specify this keyword, the device advertises the prefix.

Usage guidelines

The prefix parameters (valid-lifetime, preferred-lifetime, no-autoconfig, off-link, and no-advertise) in the ipv6 nd ra prefix command take precedence over those specified in this command. If you do not specify a prefix parameter in the ipv6 nd ra prefix command, the prefix uses the setting in the ipv6 nd ra prefix default command.

All settings in this command are applicable to the prefixes that are specified by the ipv6 nd ra prefix command. For the prefix in the IPv6 address of the interface, only the no-advertise keyword takes effect.

Parameters

time: Specifies the router lifetime in the range of 0 to 9000 seconds. If the value is set to 0, the router does not act as the default router.

Usage guidelines

The router lifetime in RA messages specifies how long the router sending the RA messages acts as the default router. Hosts receiving the RA messages check this value to determine whether to use the sending router as the default router. If the router lifetime is 0, the router cannot be used as the default router.

The router lifetime in RA messages must be greater than or equal to the advertising interval.

Parameters

ipv6-address: Specifies the IPv6 address of the static neighbor entry.

mac-address: Specifies the MAC address (48 bits) of the static neighbor entry, in the format of H-H-H.

vlan-id: Specifies the VLAN ID of the static neighbor entry, in the range of 1 to 4094.

port-type port-number: Specifies a Layer 2 port of the static neighbor entry by its type and number.

interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies a Layer 3 interface of the static neighbor entry by its type and number.

vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies an MPLS L3VPN instance to which the static neighbor entry belongs. The vpn-instance-name argument represents the VPN instance name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters. If you do not specify a VPN instance, this command configures a static neighbor entry for the public network.

Usage guidelines

A neighbor entry stores information about a link-local node. The entry can be created dynamically through NS and NA messages, or configured statically.

The device uniquely identifies a static neighbor entry by using the neighbor's IPv6 address and the number of the Layer 3 interface that connects to the neighbor. You can configure a static neighbor entry by using either of the following methods:

· Method 1—Associate a neighbor IPv6 address and link-layer address with the Layer 3 interface of the local node.

· Method 2—Associate a neighbor IPv6 address and link-layer address with a Layer 2 port in a VLAN containing the local node.

You can use either of the previous configuration methods to configure a static neighbor entry for a VLAN interface.

· If Method 1 is used, the neighbor entry is in INCMP state. After the device obtains the corresponding Layer 2 port information, the neighbor entry goes into REACH state.

· If Method 2 is used, the port specified by port-type port-number must belong to the VLAN specified by vlan-id and the corresponding VLAN interface must already exist. After the static neighbor entry is configured, the device associates the VLAN interface with the IPv6 address to uniquely identify the static neighbor entry. The entry will be in REACH state.

You can use the undo ipv6 neighbor command to delete both static and dynamic neighbor entries.

To delete a neighbor entry for a VLAN interface, specify only the corresponding VLAN interface.

Examples

# Configure a static neighbor entry for VLAN-interface 1.

ipv6 neighbor link-local minimize

Use ipv6 neighbor link-local minimize to minimize link-local ND entries.

Use undo ipv6 neighbor link-local minimize to restore the default.

Syntax

undo ipv6 neighbor link-local minimize

Default

All ND entries are assigned to the driver.

Views

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

Perform this command to minimize link-local ND entries assigned to the driver. Link-local ND entries refer to ND entries that contain link-local addresses.

With this feature enabled, the device does not add newly learned link-local ND entries whose link local addresses are not the next hop of any route to the driver. This saves driver resources.

This feature affects only newly learned link-local ND entries rather than existing ND entries.

Examples

# Minimize link-local ND entries.

<Sysname> system-view

ipv6 neighbor stale-aging

Use ipv6 neighbor stale-aging to set the aging timer for ND entries in stale state.

Use undo ipv6 neighbor stale-aging to restore the default.

Syntax

Default

The aging timer for ND entries in stale state is 240 minutes.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

aging-time: Specifies the aging timer for ND entries in stale state, in the range of 1 to 1440 minutes.

Usage guidelines

This aging time applies to all ND entries in stale state. If an ND entry in stale state is not updated before the timer expires, it moves to the delay state. If it is still not updated in 5 seconds, the ND entry moves to the probe state. The device sends an NS message for detection a maximum of three times. If no response is received, the device deletes the ND entry.

Examples

# Set the aging timer for ND entries in stale state to 120 minutes.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] ipv6 neighbor stale-aging 120

ipv6 neighbors max-learning-num

Parameters

max-number: Specifies the maximum number of dynamic neighbor entries that an interface can learn. The value range for this argument is 1 to 1024.

Usage guidelines

The device can dynamically acquire the link-layer address of a neighboring node through NS and NA messages and add it into the neighbor table.

When the number of dynamic neighbor entries reaches the threshold, the interface stops learning neighbor information.

Examples

# Set the maximum number of dynamic neighbor entries that VLAN-interface 100 can learn to 10.

network-admin

Parameters

vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies an MPLS L3VPN instance to which the Path MTU belongs. The vpn-instance-name argument represents the VPN instance name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters. If you do not specify a VPN instance, this command sets the Path MTU for the public network.

ipv6-address: Specifies an IPv6 address.

value: Specifies the Path MTU of the specified IPv6 address, in the range of 1280 to 10240 bytes.

Usage guidelines

You can set a static Path MTU for a destination IPv6 address. When a source host sends a packet through an interface, it compares the interface MTU with the static Path MTU of the specified destination IPv6 address. If the packet size is larger than the smaller one of the two values, the host fragments the packet according to the smaller value.

Examples

# Set a static Path MTU for an IPv6 address.

The aging time for dynamic Path MTU is 10 minutes.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

age-time: Specifies the aging time for Path MTU in minutes, in the range of 10 to 100.

Usage guidelines

After the path MTU from a source host to a destination host is dynamically determined, the source host sends subsequent packets to the destination host based on this MTU. After the aging time expires, the following events occur:

· The dynamic Path MTU is removed.

· The source host determines a dynamic path MTU through the Path MTU mechanism again.

The aging time is invalid for a static Path MTU.

Examples

# Set the aging time for a dynamic Path MTU to 40 minutes.

Parameters

prefix-number: Specifies a prefix ID in the range of 1 to 1024.

ipv6-prefix/prefix-length: Specifies a prefix and its length. The value range for the prefix-length argument is 1 to 128.

Usage guidelines

To modify an existing static prefix, execute the undo ipv6 prefix command to delete the existing static prefix, and then execute the ipv6 prefix command.

Dynamic IPv6 prefixes obtained from DHCPv6 servers cannot be manually removed or modified.

A static IPv6 prefix can have the same prefix ID with a dynamic IPv6 prefix, but the static one takes precedence over the dynamic one.

Configure this command on a multichassis IRF fabric to improve fragment reassembly efficiency. The command enables the subordinate to reassemble the IPv6 fragments of a packet if all the fragments arrive at it. If this feature is disabled, all IPv6 fragments are delivered to the master for reassembly. The command applies only to fragments destined for the same subordinate.

ipv6 redirects enable

Use ipv6 redirects enable to enable sending ICMPv6 redirect messages.

Use undo ipv6 redirects enable to disable sending ICMPv6 redirect messages.

Syntax

ipv6 redirects enable

undo ipv6 redirects enable

Default

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

The default gateway sends an ICMPv6 redirect message to the source of an IPv6 packet to inform the source of a better first hop.

Sending ICMPv6 redirect messages enables hosts that hold few routes to establish routing tables and find the best route. Because this feature adds host routes into the routing tables, host performance degrades when there are too many host routes. As a result, sending ICMPv6 redirect messages is disabled by default.

Examples

# Enable sending ICMPv6 redirect messages.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] ipv6 redirects enable

ipv6 temporary-address

Syntax

ipv6 temporary-address [ valid-lifetime preferred-lifetime ]

undo ipv6 temporary-address

Default

The system does not generate any temporary IPv6 address.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

valid-lifetime: Specifies the valid lifetime for temporary IPv6 addresses, in the range of 600 to 4294967295 seconds. The default valid lifetime is 604800 seconds (7 days).

preferred-lifetime: Specifies the preferred lifetime for temporary IPv6 addresses, in the range of 600 to 4294967295 seconds. The default preferred lifetime is 86400 seconds (1 day).

Usage guidelines

You must enable stateless autoconfiguration before enabling the temporary address feature.

The valid lifetime for temporary IPv6 addresses must be greater than or equal to the preferred lifetime for temporary IPv6 addresses.

In stateless address autoconfiguration, an interface automatically generates an IPv6 global unicast address by using the address prefix in the received RA message and the interface ID. On an IEEE 802 interface (such as an Ethernet interface or a VLAN interface), the interface ID is generated based on the interface's MAC address and is globally unique. An attacker can exploit this rule to easily identify the sending device.

To fix the vulnerability, you can enable the temporary address feature. An IEEE 802 interface generates the following addresses:

· Public IPv6 address—Includes an address prefix in the RA message and a fixed interface ID generated based on the interface's MAC address.

· Temporary IPv6 address—Includes an address prefix in the RA message and a random interface ID generated through MD5.

When the valid lifetime of a temporary IPv6 address expires, the system deletes the address and generates a new one. This enables the system to send packets with different source addresses through the same interface. The preferred lifetime and valid lifetime for a temporary IPv6 address are determined as follows:

· The preferred lifetime of a temporary IPv6 address takes the smaller of the following values:

¡ The preferred lifetime of the address prefix in the RA message.

¡ The preferred lifetime configured for temporary IPv6 addresses minus DESYNC_FACTOR (a random number in the range of 0 to 600 seconds).

· The valid lifetime of a temporary IPv6 address takes the smaller of the following values:

¡ The valid lifetime of the address prefix.

¡ The valid lifetime configured for temporary IPv6 addresses.
