Configuring IPv6 Characteristics for a Profile

To configure IPv6 characteristics for a profile:

• Configure an IPv6 address on an interface to which the profile is attached.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 address 1::1/64

  Use the no version to remove the IPv6 address from the interface.

• Create the HTTP local server to listen and process for IPv6 exception packets. For more information, see Configuring the HTTP Server to Support Guided Entrance in the JunosE Broadband Access Configuration Guide.
  host1(config)#ipv6 http

  Use the no version to delete the HTTP local server.

• Specify the URL to which a subscriber’s HTTP access session is redirected. For more information, see Configuring the HTTP Server to Support Guided Entrance in the JunosE Broadband Access Configuration Guide.

  The first access session is typically used by the Service Manager application to provide initial provisioning and service selection for the subscriber.

  HTTP redirect is per-interface; use the command in Interface, Subinterface or Profile Configuration mode for static interfaces.

  The redirect URL can be a maximum of 64 characters.

  Note: The HTTP local server must be configured and enabled in the virtual router for the interface on which you use the ipv6 http redirectUrl command. Otherwise, the URL redirect operation will fail.

  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 http redirectUrl http://ispsite.redirect.com

  Use the no version to restore the default, which disables the HTTP redirect feature.

• Enable MLD on an interface, and set the MLD version to MLDv2.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 mld

  Use the no version to disable MLD on an interface.

• Set the maximum transmission unit size of IPv6 packets sent on an interface.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 mtu 1000

  Use the no version to restore the default value, 0, which means that the router takes the value from a lower protocol layer.

• Enable the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery process on an interface.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 nd

  Use the no version to disable the Neighbor Discovery process.

• Set the “managed address configuration” flag in IPv6 router advertisements.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 nd managed-config-flag

  Use the no version to clear the flag from IPv6 router advertisements.

• Set the “other stateful configuration” flag in IPv6 router advertisements.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 nd other-config-flag

  Use the no version to clear the flag from IPv6 router advertisements.

• Specify which IPv6 prefixes the system includes in IPv6 router advertisements.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 nd prefix-advertisement 2002:1::/64 60000 45000 onlink autoconfig

  Use the no version to remove any prefixes from the IPv6 routing advertisements.

• Specify the interval, in seconds, between IPv6 router advertisement retransmissions on an interface.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 nd ra-interval 500

  Use the no version to restore the default interval, 200 seconds.

• Specify the router lifetime value, in seconds, in IPv6 router advertisements on an interface. The router lifetime value is the amount of time the router is considered the default router on this interface.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 nd ra-lifetime 900

  Use the no version to restore the default lifetime, 1800 seconds.

• Specify the amount of time, in milliseconds, that the E Series router can reach a remote IPv6 node after some reachability confirmation event has occurred.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 nd reachable-time 30000

  Use the no version to restore the default value 0 milliseconds for router advertisements and 3,600,000 milliseconds (1 hour) for Neighbor Discovery activity of the E Series router.

• Suppress IPv6 router advertisement transmissions on a LAN local area network (Ethernet) interface.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 nd suppress-ra

  Use the no version to reenable the sending of IPv6 router advertisement transmissions on the LAN (Ethernet) interface

• Assign a policy list to the ingress or egress of an interface to which the profile is attached.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 policy secondary-input my-policy

  Use the no version to remove the association between a policy list and a profile.

• Enable source address validation on an IPv6 interface.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 sa-validate

  Use the no version to disable source address validation.

• Enable IPv6 processing on an interface without assigning an explicit IPv6 address to that interface.
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 unnumbered loopback 0

  Use the no version to remove the IPv6 address from the interface.

• Specify a virtual router in an IPv6 profile. Dynamic interfaces created with the profile are assigned to this virtual router
  host1(config-profile)#ipv6 virtual-router westford01

  Use the no version to remove the virtual router assignment from the profile. If no virtual router is specified via RADIUS, then any subsequent use of the profile to create a dynamic interface fails for lack of a virtual router.
