Field

Description

VLAN

A VLAN is marked “up” if the switch can send and receive packets on this interface, “down” if
a line signal is not present, or “administratively down” if the interface has been disabled by
the administrator.

IPv6

IPv6 is marked “enable” if the switch can send and receive IP traffic on this interface,
“disable” if the switch cannot send and receive IP traffic on this interface, or “stalled” if a
duplicate link-local address is detected on the interface.

Link-local
address

Shows the link-local address assigned to this interface

Global unicast
address(es)

Shows the global unicast address(es) assigned to this interface

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

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.

ND retransmit
interval

The interval between IPv6 neighbor solicitation retransmissions sent on an interface during
duplicate address detection.

ND advertised
retransmit
interval

The retransmit interval is included in all router advertisements sent out of an interface so that
nodes on the same link use the same time value.
