Global Configuration

Command Usage

• Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) has been replaced in IPv6 with the

Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP). The ipv6 neighbor command is similar
to the mac-address-table static command (page 31-1) that is implemented
using ARP.

• Static entries can only be configured on an IPv6-enabled interface.
• The router does not determine whether a static entry is reachable before

placing it in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache.

• If the specified entry was dynamically learned through the IPv6 neighbor

discovery process, and already exists in the neighbor discovery cache, it is
converted to a static entry. Static entries in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache
are not modified if subsequently detected by the neighbor discovery process.

• Disabling IPv6 on an interface with the no ipv6 enable command (see

page 41-7) deletes all dynamically learned entries in the IPv6 neighbor
discovery cache for that interface, but does not delete static entries.

Example
The following maps a static entry for global unicast address to a MAC address:
