show ipv6 neighbors state

Description

Shows all IPv6 neighbor ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) cache entries, or those cache entries that are in the specified state.

Command context

Operator (>) or Manager (#)

Parameters

all

Shows all ARP cache entries.

failed

Shows ARP cache entries that are in failed state. The neighbor might have been deleted. Set the neighbor to be unreachable.

incomplete

Shows ARP cache entries that are in incomplete state.

An incomplete state means that address resolution is in progress and the link-layer address of the neighbor has not yet been determined. This means that a solicitation request was sent, and you are waiting for a solicitation reply or a timeout.

permanent

Shows ARP cache entries that are in permanent state.

reachable

Shows ARP cache entries that are in reachable state, meaning that the neighbor is known to have been reachable recently.

stale

Shows ARP cache entries that are in stale state.

ARP cache entries are in the stale state if the elapsed time is in excess of the ARP timeout in seconds since the last positive confirmation that the forwarding path was functioning properly.

[vsx-peer]

Shows the output from the VSX peer switch. If the switches do not have the VSX configuration or the ISL is down, the output from the VSX peer switch is not displayed.

Authority

Operators or Administrators. Users without administrator authority can execute this command from the operator context (>) only.
