Configuring a Static Neighbor

A neighbor relationship can be established between a local device and its neighbor after a neighbor is manually configured.

Prerequisites

Before configuring a static neighbor, configure the IPv6 address for an interface.

Procedure

Access the system view.
```
system-view
```

Access the interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

Run one of the following commands as required:
- To configure a static neighbor entry on a common Layer-3 interface, run the ipv6 neighbor ipv6-address mac-address command.
- To configure a static neighbor entry on a VLANIF interface, run the ipv6 neighbor ipv6-address mac-address vid vlan-id interface-type interface-number command.
You can configure up to 300 neighbors on each interface.

Follow-up Procedure

Run the display ipv6 neighbors command to check the cache of the neighbor information containing neighbors' IPv6 addresses and the specified interfaces.
