Configuring the global RPF command
Before you can enable RPF to operate on a device, you must first configure RPF globally. There are
separate commands for IPv4 and IPv6, as shown in the following examples.
NOTE
IPv6 configurations are not supported on Brocade NetIron CES and Brocade NetIron CER devices.
For IPv6 configurations, use the following command.
Syntax: ipv6 reverse-path-check
Brocade(config-if-e1000-1/4)# rpf-mode ?
loose Allow packets forwarding if there is a route to source
strict Allow packets forwarding if route to source is towards the incoming
port
Brocade(config-if-e1000-1/4)# rpf-mode strict ?
log Log packets that fail RPF check and are to be dropped
Brocade(config-if-e1000-1/4)# rpf-mode strict
