Configuring the Maximum Number of IPv6 Neighbors

The maximum number of IPv6 neighbors can be configured for ICX 7850 and ICX 7550 devices.
When using the forwarding-profile command for an ICX 7850 device, if profile3 is selected, it is recommended to configure the maximum number of IPv6 neighbors to 65536. Refer to the forwarding-profile command in the RUCKUS FastIron Command Reference for more information.

The following task configures the maximum number of IPv6 neighbors to 65536 for an ICX 7850 device.

  1. Enter global configuration mode.
    device# configure terminal
  2. Configure the maximum number of IPv6 neighbors.
    device(config)# system-max ip6-neighbor 65536

The following example sets the maximum number of IPv6 neighbors to 2048 for an ICX 7550 device.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# system-max ip6-neighbor 2048

The following example sets the maximum number of IPv6 neighbors to 65536 for an ICX 7850 device.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# system-max ip6-neighbor 65536
