To add an IPv6 neighbor:

1 Click System > IP Addressing > IPv6 Neighbors in the tree view to

display the IPv6 Neighbors: Summary page.
The previously-defined neighbors are displayed along with their states.

The possible states are:

Incomplete — An address resolution is in progress, and the link-layer

address of the neighbor has not yet been determined.

Reachable — The neighbor is known to have been reachable recently

(within tens of seconds).

Stale — The neighbor is no longer known to be reachable, but until

traffic is sent to the neighbor, no attempt is made to verify its

reachability.

Delay — The neighbor is no longer known to be reachable, and traffic

has recently been sent to the neighbor. Rather than probe the

neighbor immediately, however, there is a delay sending probes for a

short while, in order to give upper-layer protocols a chance to provide

reachability confirmation.

Probe — The neighbor is no longer known to be reachable, and

Unicast Neighbor Solicitation probes are being sent to verify

reachability.

2 To clear the Neighbors table, select one of the following options:

None — Does not clear any entries.

Static Only — Clears the static entries.

Dynamic Only — Clears the dynamic entries.

All Dynamic and Static — Clears the static and dynamic address

entries.

3 To add a new IPv6 neighbor, click Add, and enter the fields:

IPv6 Interface — Displays the interface on which the IPv6 address is

defined.

IPv6 Address — Enter the neighbor IPv6 address.

MAC Address — Enter the MAC address assigned to the interface.
