Disabling router advertisement and solicitation messages
Router advertisement and solicitation messages enable a node on a link to discover the routers on the
same link. By default, router advertisement and solicitation messages are permitted on the device. To
disable these messages, configure an IPv6 access control list that denies them. The following shows an
example configuration.
device(config)#ipv6 access-list rtradvert
device(config)#deny icmp any any router-advertisement
device(config)#deny icmp any any router-solicitation
device(config)#permit ipv6 any any
Disabling IPv6 on a Layer 2 switch
IPv6 is enabled by default in the Layer 2 switch code. If desired, you can disable IPv6 on a global basis
on a device running the switch code. To do so, enter the following command at the Global CONFIG
level of the CLI.
device(config)#no ipv6 enable
Syntax: no ipv6 enable
To re-enable IPv6 after it has been disabled, enter ipv6 enable .
