IPv6 Global Configuration
Use the Global Configuration page to enable IPv6 forwarding on the router and to enable the
forwarding of IPv6 unicast datagrams.
To display the IPv6 Global Configuration page, click Routing IPv6 Basic Global
Configuration.
To configure global IPv6 routing:
1. Use IPv6 Unicast Routing to globally enable or disable IPv6 unicast routing on the
entity.
2. Use the Hop Limit option to define the unicast hop count used in IPv6 packets originated by
the node. The value is also included in router advertisements. Valid values for <hops> are
1-64 inclusive. The default “not configured” means that a value of zero is sent in router
advertisements and a value of 64 is sent in packets originated by the node. Note that this is
not the same as configuring a value of 64.
3. Use ICMPv6 Rate Limit Error Interval to control the ICMPv6 error packets by specifying
the number of ICMP error packets that are allowed per burst interval. By Default Rate limit is
100 packets/sec i.e., burst interval is 1000 msec. To disable ICMP rate limiting set this field
to '0'. Valid Rate Interval must be in the range 0 to 2147483647.
4. Use ICMPv6 Rate Limit Burst Size to control the ICMP error packets by specifying the
number of ICMP error packets that are allowed per burst interval. Default burst size is 100
packets. When burst interval is 0 then configuring this field is not a valid operation. Valid
Burst Size must be in the range 1 to 200.
