IPv6 can't ping host when static route configured with exit interface












2














I have the following topology (using IPv6) interfaces:



IPv6 Static Network Route



I have the following static routes configured on it:



R1#sh ipv6 route static
IPv6 Routing Table - default - 9 entries
Codes: C - Connected, L - Local, S - Static, U - Per-user Static route
B - BGP, HA - Home Agent, MR - Mobile Router, R - RIP
H - NHRP, I1 - ISIS L1, I2 - ISIS L2, IA - ISIS interarea
IS - ISIS summary, D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, NM - NEMO
ND - ND Default, NDp - ND Prefix, DCE - Destination, NDr - Redirect
RL - RPL, O - OSPF Intra, OI - OSPF Inter, OE1 - OSPF ext 1
OE2 - OSPF ext 2, ON1 - OSPF NSSA ext 1, ON2 - OSPF NSSA ext 2
la - LISP alt, lr - LISP site-registrations, ld - LISP dyn-eid
lA - LISP away, a - Application
S 2004::/64 [1/0]
via GigabitEthernet0/2, directly connected
S 2005::/64 [1/0]
via 2003::2


I can ping 2005::2 just fine! The traceroute gives expected results too:



R1#traceroute 2005::1  
Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 2005::1

1 2003::2 12 msec 5 msec 4 msec


But when I try to ping 2004::2, configured using the command ipv6 route 2004::/64 Gi0/2, I get timed out:



R1#ping 2004::1      
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 2004::1, timeout is 2 seconds:
.....
Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)


I know we're not supposed to have Ethernet interfaces configured as exit interfaces to prevent ARP table overflows and/or prevent performance issues, but I'm just trying to get a proof of concept/to learn and I don't have serial interfaces on my VIRL images.



Strangely enough, i can ping 2001::1 (R1) from R2 (2004::1):



R2#ping 2001::1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 2001::1, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 3/4/7 ms
R2#traceroute 2001::1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 2001::1

1 2002::1 9 msec 8 msec 8 msec


So, what am I doing wrong?

I have the following topology (using IPv6) interfaces:



IPv6 Static Network Route



I have the following static routes configured on it:



R1#sh ipv6 route static
IPv6 Routing Table - default - 9 entries
Codes: C - Connected, L - Local, S - Static, U - Per-user Static route
B - BGP, HA - Home Agent, MR - Mobile Router, R - RIP
H - NHRP, I1 - ISIS L1, I2 - ISIS L2, IA - ISIS interarea
IS - ISIS summary, D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, NM - NEMO
ND - ND Default, NDp - ND Prefix, DCE - Destination, NDr - Redirect
RL - RPL, O - OSPF Intra, OI - OSPF Inter, OE1 - OSPF ext 1
OE2 - OSPF ext 2, ON1 - OSPF NSSA ext 1, ON2 - OSPF NSSA ext 2
la - LISP alt, lr - LISP site-registrations, ld - LISP dyn-eid
lA - LISP away, a - Application
S 2004::/64 [1/0]
via GigabitEthernet0/2, directly connected
S 2005::/64 [1/0]
via 2003::2


I can ping 2005::2 just fine! The traceroute gives expected results too:



R1#traceroute 2005::1  
Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 2005::1

1 2003::2 12 msec 5 msec 4 msec


But when I try to ping 2004::2, configured using the command ipv6 route 2004::/64 Gi0/2, I get timed out:



R1#ping 2004::1      
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 2004::1, timeout is 2 seconds:
.....
Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)


I know we're not supposed to have Ethernet interfaces configured as exit interfaces to prevent ARP table overflows and/or prevent performance issues, but I'm just trying to get a proof of concept/to learn and I don't have serial interfaces on my VIRL images.



Strangely enough, i can ping 2001::1 (R1) from R2 (2004::1):



R2#ping 2001::1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 2001::1, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 3/4/7 ms
R2#traceroute 2001::1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 2001::1

1 2002::1 9 msec 8 msec 8 msec


So, what am I doing wrong?

Remember that IPv6 doesn't use ARP. There is no broadcast on IPv6, and ARP uses broadcast. IPv6 uses ND, which uses multicast.



Notice the difference in the route configurations:



ipv6 route 2004::/64 GigabitEthernet0/2
ipv6 route 2005::/64 2003::2
!


You are not giving an actual next hop address for the network on the other side of R2. If you point the route to the interface, it should work:



ipv6 route 2004::/64 2002::2


-or-



ipv6 route 2004::/64 GigabitEthernet0/2 2002::2


Ethernet is a multiaccess network, not a point-to-point network type, so you really need to tell IPv6 what the next hop address is.





It may be interesting to try using a point-to-point network on the link between R1 and R2, e.g. 2002::/127 with addresses of 2002:: and 2002::1.



Also, you should not really use Global IPv6 addresses for testing. There are IPv6 ranges for such things, e.g. 2001:2::/48 or ULA addressing.

    When pinging 2004::2 from the R1, the router needs to perform neighbor discovery in order to successfully perform L2 encapsulation. To accomplish this task the router is sending ICMPv6 Neighbor solicitation message to the solicited node multicast address ff02::1:ff00:2 (ff02::1:ff00:0/104 is used as prefix, and the last 24 bits are taken from the real destination which is in this case ::2), however since the 2004::2 is not present on the link between R1--R2 no one will respond, thus the encapsulation fails and the ping fails as well, that is why you need to specify next hop address as well. This scenario would work in IPv4 thanks to proxy ARP (if enabled on the incoming interface on R2).

          Ethernet is a multiaccess network, not a point-to-point network type, so you really need to tell IPv6 what the next hop address is.





          It may be interesting to try using a point-to-point network on the link between R1 and R2, e.g. 2002::/127 with addresses of 2002:: and 2002::1.



          Also, you should not really use Global IPv6 addresses for testing. There are IPv6 ranges for such things, e.g. 2001:2::/48 or ULA addressing.

              When pinging 2004::2 from the R1, the router needs to perform neighbor discovery in order to successfully perform L2 encapsulation. To accomplish this task the router is sending ICMPv6 Neighbor solicitation message to the solicited node multicast address ff02::1:ff00:2 (ff02::1:ff00:0/104 is used as prefix, and the last 24 bits are taken from the real destination which is in this case ::2), however since the 2004::2 is not present on the link between R1--R2 no one will respond, thus the encapsulation fails and the ping fails as well, that is why you need to specify next hop address as well. This scenario would work in IPv4 thanks to proxy ARP (if enabled on the incoming interface on R2).
