ipv6 nd prefix
Use the ipv6 nd prefix command to configure parameters associated with prefixes that the router
advertises in its router advertisements.
Syntax
ipv6 nd prefix prefix/prefix-length [{valid-lifetime| infinite} {preferred-lifetime| infinite}]
[noautoconfig] [off-link]
no ipv6 nd prefix prefix/prefix-length
• prefix—IPv6 prefix.
• prefix-length—IPv6 prefix length.
• valid-lifetime—Valid lifetime of the router in seconds. (Range: 0-4294967295 seconds)
• infinite—Indicates lifetime value is infinite.
• preferred-lifetime—Preferred-lifetime of the router in seconds. (Range: 0-4294967295
seconds)
• no-autocoding—Do not use Prefix for autoconfiguration.
• off-link—Do not use Prefix for onlink determination.
Default Configuration
604800 seconds is the default value for valid-lifetime, 2592000 seconds for preferred lifetime.

User Guidelines
The router advertises its global IPv6 prefixes in its router advertisements (RAs). An RA only
includes the prefixes of the IPv6 addresses configured on the interface where the RA is
transmitted. Addresses are configured using the ipv6 address interface configuration
command. Each prefix advertisement includes information about the prefix, such as its
lifetime values and whether hosts should use the prefix for on-link determination or address
auto-configuration. Use the ipv6 nd prefix command to configure these values.
