Neighbor Discovery - ND

ND allows different devices on the same link to advertise their existence to their neighbors and to learn about the existence of their neighbors. ND is the IPv6 equivalent of IPv4 ARP for layer 2 address resolution.

ND is on by default. Cumulus Linux provides a set of configuration options to support IPv6 networks and adjust your security settings.

Cumulus Linux provides options to configure:

• Router Advertisement
• IPv6 prefixes
• Recursive DNS servers
• DNS Search Lists
• Home Agents
• MTU for neighbor discovery messages
• Global timer settings

Router Advertisement

Router Advertisement is disabled by default. To enable Router Advertisment for an interface:

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery router-advertisement enable on
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo vtysh
...
leaf01# configure terminal
leaf01(config)# interface swp1
leaf01(config-if)# no ipv6 nd suppress-ra

You can configure these optional settings:

• Allow consecutive Router Advertisement packets to transmit more frequently than every three seconds (fast retransmit). You can set this parameter to on or off. The default setting is on.
• Set the hop limit value advertised in a Router Advertisement message. You can set a value between 0 and 255. The default value is 64.
• Set the interval between unsolicited multicast router advertisements from the interface. You can set a value between 70 and 1800000 miliseconds. The default value is 600000 miliseconds.
• Set the maximum amount of time that Router Advertisement messages can exist on the route. You can set a value between 0 and 9000 seconds. The default value is 1800.
• Allow a dynamic host to use a managed protocol, such as DHCPv6 to configure IP addresses automatically (managed configuration). Set this parameter to on or off. By default, this parameter is not set.
• Allow a dynamic host to use a managed protocol to configure additional information through DHCPv6. Set this parameter to on or off. By default, this parameter is not set.
• Set the amount of time that an IPv6 node is reachable. You can set a value between 0 and 3600000 milliseconds. The default value is 0.
• Set the interval at which neighbor solicitation messages retransmit. You can set a value between 0 and 4294967295 milliseconds. The default value is 0.
• Allow hosts to use router preference to select the default router. You can set a value of high, medium, or low. The default value is medium.

The following example commands set:

• The Router Advertisement interval to 60000 milliseconds (60 seconds).
• The router preference to high.
• The amount of time that an IPv6 node is reachable to 3600000.
• The interval at which neighbor solicitation messages retransmit to 4294967295.
• The hop limit value in the Router Advertisement message to 100.
• The maximum amount of time that Router Advertisement messages exist on the route to 4000.

IPv6 Prefixes

To configure IPv6 prefixes, you must specify the IPv6 prefixes you want to include in router advertisements. In addition, you can configure these optional settings:

• Set the amount of time that the prefix is valid for on-link determination. You can set a value between 0 and 4294967295 seconds. The default value is 2592000.
• Set the amount of time that addresses generated from a prefix remain preferred. You can set a value between 0 and 4294967295 seconds. The default value is 604800.
• Enable adverisement to make no statement about prefix on-link or off-link properties. By default, this setting is off.
• Enable the specified prefix to use IPv6 autoconfiguration. By default, this setting is on.
• Indicate to hosts on the local link that the specified prefix contains a complete IP address by setting the R flag. By default, this setting is off.

The following example commands set the IPv6 prefix to 2001:db8:1::100/32, the amount of time that the prefix is valid for on-link determination to 2000000000, and the amount of time that addresses generated from a prefix remain preferred to 1000000000.

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery prefix 2001:db8:1::100/32 valid-lifetime 2000000000
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery prefix 2001:db8:1::100/32 preferred-lifetime 1000000000
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo vtysh
...
leaf01# configure terminal
leaf01(config)# interface swp1
leaf01(config-if)# ipv6 nd prefix 2001:db8:1::100/32 2000000000 1000000000
leaf01(config-if)# end
leaf01# write memory
leaf01# exit
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ 

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo cat /etc/frr/frr.conf
...
interface swp1
 ipv6 nd prefix 2001:db8::/32 2000000000 1000000000
 ...

The following example commands set advertisement to make no statement about prefix on-link or off-link properties, enable the specified prefix to use IPv6 autoconfiguration, and indicate to hosts on the local link that the specified prefix contains a complete IP address.

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery prefix 2001:db8:1::100/32 off-link on
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery prefix 2001:db8:1::100/32 autoconfig on
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery prefix 2001:db8:1::100/32 router-address on
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo vtysh

 ipv6 nd prefix 2001:db8::/32 router-address
 ipv6 nd prefix 2001:db8::/32 no-autoconfig
 ...

Recursive DNS Servers

To configure recursive DNS servers (RDNSS), you must specify the IPv6 address of each RDNSS you want to advertise.

An optional parameter lets you set the maximum amount of time you want to use the RDNSS for domain name resolution. You can set a value between 0 and 4294967295 seconds or use the keyword infinte to set the time to never expire. If you set the value to 0, Cumulus Linux no longer advertises the RDNSS address.

The following example commands set the RDNSS address to 2001:db8:1::100 and the lifetime to infinite:

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery rdnss 2001:db8:1::100 lifetime infinite
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo vtysh
...
leaf01# configure terminal
leaf01(config)# interface swp1
leaf01(config-if)# ipv6 nd rdnss 2001:db8:1::100 infinite
leaf01(config-if)# end
leaf01# write memory
leaf01# exit
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ 

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo cat /etc/frr/frr.conf
...
interface swp1
 ipv6 nd rdnss 2001:db8:1::100 infinite
 ...

DNS Search Lists

To configure DNS search lists (DNSSL), you must specify the domain suffix you want to advertise.

An optional parameter lets you set the maximum amount of time you want to use the domain suffix for domain name resolution. You can set a value between 0 and 4294967295 seconds or use the keyword infinte to set the time to never expire. If you set the value to 0, the host does not use the DNSSL.

The following example command sets the domain suffix to accounting.nvidia.com and the maximum amount of time you want to use the domain suffix to infinite:

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery dnssl accounting.nvidia.com lifetime infinite
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo vtysh
...
leaf01# configure terminal
leaf01(config)# interface swp1
leaf01(config-if)# ipv6 nd dnssl accounting.nvidia.com infinite
leaf01(config-if)# end
leaf01# write memory
leaf01# exit
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ 

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo cat /etc/frr/frr.conf
...
interface swp1
 ipv6 nd dnssl accounting.nvidia.com infinite
...

Home Agents

Mobile IPv6 defines an additional flag in the router advertisement message that indicates if the advertising router is capable of being a Home Agent. Each Home Agent on the home link sets this flag when it sends router advertisements.

You can configure the switch to be a Home Agent with these settings:

• Set the maximum amount of time you want the router to act as a Home Agent. You can set a value between 0 and 65520 seconds. The default value is 0 (the router is not a Home Agent).
• Set the Home Agent router preference. You can set a value between 0 and 65535. The default value is 0 (the lowest preference).

The following example commands configure the switch as a Home Agent by setting the maximum amount of time the router acts as a Home Agent to 20000 seconds and the router preference to 100:

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery home-agent preference 100
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery home-agent lifetime 20000
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo vtysh
...
leaf01# configure terminal
leaf01(config)# interface swp1
leaf01(config-if)# ipv6 nd home-agent-config-flag
leaf01(config-if)# ipv6 nd home-agent-preference 100
leaf01(config-if)# ipv6 nd home-agent-lifetime 0
leaf01(config-if)# end
leaf01# write memory
leaf01# exit
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ 

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo cat /etc/frr/frr.conf
...
interface swp1
 ipv6 nd home-agent-config-flag
 ipv6 nd home-agent-lifetime 0
 ipv6 nd home-agent-preference 100
...

MTU

You can set the MTU for neighbor discovery messages on an interface. You can configure a value between 1 and 65535.

To following example commands set the MTU on swp1 to 1500:

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery mtu 1500
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo vtysh
...
leaf01# configure terminal
leaf01(config)# interface swp1
leaf01(config-if)# ipv6 nd mtu 1500
leaf01(config-if)# end
leaf01# write memory
leaf01# exit
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ 

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ sudo cat /etc/frr/frr.conf
...
interface swp1
 ipv6 nd mtu 1500
...

Neighbor Base Reachable Timer

You can set how long a neighbor cache entry is valid with the NVUE nv set system global nd base-reachable-time command. The entry is valid for at least the value between the base reachable time divided by two and three times the base reachable time divided by two. You can specify a value between 30 and 2147483 seconds. The default value is auto; NVUE derives the value for auto from the /etc/sysctl.d/neigh.conf file.

The following example configures the neighbor base reachable timer to 50 seconds.

cumulus@leaf01:~$ nv set system global nd base-reachable-time 50
cumulus@leaf01:~$ nv config apply

To reset the neighbor base reachable timer to the default setting, run the nv unset system global nd base-reachable-time command.

To show the neighbor base reachable timer setting, run the nv show system global nd command:

cumulus@leaf01:~$ nv show system global nd
                              operational  applied  
----------------------------  -----------  ------- 
base-reachable-time           50           50

  minimum                     128       

Disable ND

To disable ND, run the NVUE nv set interface <interface> ip neighbor-discovery enable off command:

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp1 ip neighbor-discovery enable off
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

Add Static IP Neighbor Table Entries

You can add static IPv6 neighbor table entries for easy management or as a security measure to prevent spoofing and other nefarious activities.

To create a static neighbor entry for an interface with an IPv6 address associated with a MAC address, run the nv set interface <interface> neighbor ipv6 <ip-address> lladdr <mac-address> command.

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp51 neighbor ipv6 fe80::4ab0:2dff:fea2:4c79 lladdr 00:00:5E:00:53:51
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

You can also set a flag to indicate that the neighbour is a router (is-router) or learned externally (ext_learn) and set the neighbor state (delay, failed, incomplete, noarp, permanent, probe, reachable, or stale).

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp51 neighbor ipv6 fe80::4ab0:2dff:fea2:4c79 lladdr 00:00:5E:00:53:51 flag is-router
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv set interface swp51 neighbor ipv6 fe80::4ab0:2dff:fea2:4c79 lladdr 00:00:5E:00:53:51 state permanent
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

To delete an entry in the IP neighbor table, run the nv unset interface <interface> neighbor ipv6 <ip-address> command:

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv unset interface swp51 neighbor ipv6 fe80::4ab0:2dff:fea2:4c79
cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv config apply

Show the IP Neighbor Table

To show all the entries in the IP neighbor table, run the nv show interface neighbor command or the Linux ip neighbor command:

cumulus@leaf01:mgmt:~$ nv show interface neighbor
