Options

address

Note: Starting with Junos OS Release 14.2R2, the RPM client router (the router or switch that originates the RPM probes) can send probe packets to the RPM probe server (the device that receives the RPM probes) that contains an IPv6 address.

local-link IPv6-link-local-interface-name

For TWAMP Light test sessions with IPv6 target addresses (where the control-type light statement is configured for the control connection), configure the link-local logical interface name for the egress interface.
