To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter Ethernet interface
view/aggregate interface view

interface interface-type
interface-number

Configure the maximum number of
ND snooping entries the interface
can learn

ipv6 nd snooping
max-learning-num number

Optional
By default, the number of ND

snooping entries an interface can
learn is unlimited.

Configuring PMTU discovery

Configuring a static PMTU for a specified IPv6 address

You can configure a static PMTU for a specified destination IPv6 address. When a source host sends a

packet through an interface, it compares the interface MTU with the static PMTU 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.
Follow these steps to configure a static PMTU for a specified IPv6 address:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Configure a static PMTU for a
specified IPv6 address

ipv6 pathmtu ipv6-address
[ value ]

Required
Not configured by default.

Configuring the aging time for dynamic PMTUs

After the path MTU from a source host to a destination host is dynamically determined (see “

IPv6 PMTU

discovery

“), the source host sends subsequent packets to the destination host based on this MTU. After

the aging time expires, the dynamic PMTU is removed and the source host re-determines a dynamic path

MTU through the PMTU mechanism.
The aging time is invalid for a static PMTU.
Follow these steps to configure the aging time for dynamic PMTUs:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Configure the aging time for
dynamic PMTUs

ipv6 pathmtu age age-time

Optional
10 minutes by default.

Configuring IPv6 TCP properties

You can configure the following IPv6 TCP properties.

synwait timer: When a SYN packet is sent, the synwait timer is triggered. If no response packet is
received before the synwait timer expires, the IPv6 TCP connection establishment fails.
