4 Quagga fully supports IPv6 routing. As described so far, Quagga supports
5 RIPng, OSPFv3, and BGP-4+. You can give IPv6 addresses to an interface
6 and configure static IPv6 routing information. Quagga IPv6 also provides
7 automatic address configuration via a feature called @code{address
8 auto configuration}. To do it, the router must send router advertisement
9 messages to the all nodes that exist on the network.
12 * Router Advertisement::
15 @node Router Advertisement
16 @section Router Advertisement
18 @deffn {Interface Command} {no ipv6 nd suppress-ra} {}

27 Configuring the IPv6 prefix to include in router advertisements. Several prefix
28 specific optional parameters and flags may follow:
31 @var{valid-lifetime} - the length of time in seconds during what the prefix is
32 valid for the purpose of on-link determination. Value @var{infinite} represents
33 infinity (i.e. a value of all one bits (@code{0xffffffff})).
35 Range: @code{<0-4294967295>} Default: @code{2592000}
38 @var{preferred-lifetime} - the length of time in seconds during what addresses
39 generated from the prefix remain preferred. Value @var{infinite} represents
42 Range: @code{<0-4294967295>} Default: @code{604800}
45 @var{off-link} - indicates that advertisement makes no statement about on-link or
46 off-link properties of the prefix.
48 Default: not set, i.e. this prefix can be used for on-link determination.
51 @var{no-autoconfig} - indicates to hosts on the local link that the specified prefix
52 cannot be used for IPv6 autoconfiguration.
54 Default: not set, i.e. prefix can be used for autoconfiguration.
57 @var{router-address} - indicates to hosts on the local link that the specified
59 contains a complete IP address by setting R flag.
61 Default: not set, i.e. hosts do not assume a complete IP address is placed.

68 advertisements from the interface, in seconds.

74 @deffnx {Interface Command} {no ipv6 nd ra-interval [msec <70-1800000>]} {}
75 The maximum time allowed between sending unsolicited multicast router
76 advertisements from the interface, in milliseconds.

81 @deffn {Interface Command} {ipv6 nd ra-lifetime <0-9000>} {}
82 @deffnx {Interface Command} {no ipv6 nd ra-lifetime [<0-9000>]} {}
83 The value to be placed in the Router Lifetime field of router advertisements
84 sent from the interface, in seconds. Indicates the usefulness of the router
85 as a default router on this interface. Setting the value to zero indicates
86 that the router should not be considered a default router on this interface.
87 Must be either zero or between value specified with @var{ipv6 nd ra-interval}
88 (or default) and 9000 seconds.
93 @deffn {Interface Command} {ipv6 nd reachable-time <1-3600000>} {}
94 @deffnx {Interface Command} {no ipv6 nd reachable-time [<1-3600000>]} {}
95 The value to be placed in the Reachable Time field in the Router Advertisement
96 messages sent by the router, in milliseconds. The configured time enables the
97 router to detect unavailable neighbors. The value zero means unspecified (by

105 Set/unset flag in IPv6 router advertisements which indicates to hosts that they
106 should use managed (stateful) protocol for addresses autoconfiguration in
107 addition to any addresses autoconfigured using stateless address

114 @deffnx {Interface Command} {no ipv6 nd other-config-flag} {}
115 Set/unset flag in IPv6 router advertisements which indicates to hosts that
116 they should use administered (stateful) protocol to obtain autoconfiguration
117 information other than addresses.

123 @deffnx {Interface Command} {no ipv6 nd home-agent-config-flag} {}
124 Set/unset flag in IPv6 router advertisements which indicates to hosts that
125 the router acts as a Home Agent and includes a Home Agent Option.

131 @deffnx {Interface Command} {no ipv6 nd home-agent-preference [<0-65535>]} {}
132 The value to be placed in Home Agent Option, when Home Agent config flag is set,
133 which indicates to hosts Home Agent preference. The default value of 0 stands
134 for the lowest preference possible.
139 @deffn {Interface Command} {ipv6 nd home-agent-lifetime <0-65520>} {}
140 @deffnx {Interface Command} {no ipv6 nd home-agent-lifetime [<0-65520>]} {}
141 The value to be placed in Home Agent Option, when Home Agent config flag is set,
142 which indicates to hosts Home Agent Lifetime. The default value of 0 means to
143 place the current Router Lifetime value.
