get_version Gets the version information for this interface. BIG-IP_v9.0
get_vlan Gets the VLANs with which the specified Router Advertisements are associated. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_enabled_state Sets the enabled state for the specified Router Advertisements. Enabled Router Advertisements will advertise on their associated VLANs. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_managed_flag_state Sets the managed flag state for the specified Router Advertisements. The “Managed address configuration” flag indicates that addresses are available via DHCPv6. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_maximum_hop Sets the maximum hops a Router Advertisement packet may travel before it is discarded. A value of zero means unspecified (by this router). Has a maximum value of 255. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_maximum_interval Sets the maximum interval for the specified Router Advertisements. The maximum interval is the maximum amount of time allowed between sending unsolicited multicast router advertisements from the specified interface, in seconds. Must have a value greater than the minimum interval and must be between 4 and 1800. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_minimum_interval Sets the minimum interval for the specified Router Advertisements. The minimum interval is the minimum amount of time allowed between sending unsolicited multicast router advertisements from the specified interface, in seconds. Must have a value between 3 and the maximum interval. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_mtu Sets the MTU for the specified Router Advertisements. The MTU or maximum transmission unit, should be adjusted to match the MTU on links that have a variable MTU. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_other_configuration_flag_state Sets the other-configuration flag state for the specified Router Advertisements. The “other configuration” flag indicates that other configuration information is available via DHCPv6. Examples of such information are DNS-related information or information on other servers within the network. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_reachable_time Sets the reachable time for the specified Router Advertisements. This is the time, in milliseconds, that a node assumes a neighbor is reachable after having recieved a reachablity confirmation. A value of zero means unspecified (by this router). Has a maximum value of 3600000. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_retransmit_time Sets the retransmit time for the specified Router Advertisements. This value is the time, in milliseconds, between retransmitted Neighbor Solicitation messages. A value of zero means unspecified (by this router). BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_router_lifetime Sets the router lifetime for the specified Router Advertisements. The router lifetime is the lifetime associated with the default router in seconds. A lifetime of zero indicates that the router is not a default router. Must be a value between the maximum interval and 9000. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
set_vlan Sets the VLANs with which the specified Router Advertisements are associated. BIG-IP_v11.2.0
