Joined group

address(es)

In addition to the unicast addresses assigned to an interface, a node is required

to join the all-nodes multicast addresses FF01::1 and FF02::1 for all IPv6 nodes

within scope 1 (interface-local) and scope 2 (link-local), respectively.
FF01::1/16 is the transient node-local multicast address for all attached IPv6

nodes, and FF02::1/16 is the link-local multicast address for all attached IPv6

nodes. The node-local multicast address is only used for loopback transmission

of multicast traffic. Link-local multicast addresses cover the same types as used

by link-local unicast addresses, including all nodes (FF02::1), all routers

(FF02::2), and solicited nodes (FF02::1:FFXX:XXXX) as described below.
A node is also required to compute and join the associated solicited-node

multicast addresses for every unicast and anycast address it is assigned. IPv6

addresses that differ only in the high-order bits, e.g. due to multiple high-order

prefixes associated with different aggregations, will map to the same

solicited-node address, thereby reducing the number of multicast addresses a

node must join. In this example, FF02::1:FF90:0/104 is the solicited-node

multicast address which is formed by taking the low-order 24 bits of the address

and appending those bits to the prefix.

MTU

Maximum transmission unit for this interface.

ND DAD

Indicates whether (neighbor discovery) duplicate address detection is enabled.

number of DAD attempts The number of consecutive neighbor solicitation messages sent on the interface

during duplicate address detection.
