IPv6 Configuration
The
commands
in
this
chapter
perform
configuration
of
IPv6
parameters
on
the
Enterasys
G
‐
Series.
For
information
about
specific
IPv6
routing
protocols,
such
as
OSFPv3,
refer
to
the
appropriate
chapters.
For
information
about
managing
IPv6
functionality
at
the
switch
level,
refer
to
Chapter 17
,
IPv6
Management
.
Overview
IPv6
and
IPv4
coexist
on
the
Enterasys
G
‐
Series.
As
with
IPv4,
IPv6
routing
can
be
enabled
on
VLAN
interfaces.
Each
Layer
3
routing
interface
can
be
used
for
IPv4,
IPv6,
or
both.
The
G
‐
Series
supports
all
IPv6
address
formats,
including
global
unicast
addresses,
link
‐
local
unicast,
global
multicast,
scoped
multicast
(including
local
scoped
multicast),
IPv4
compatible
addresses,
unspecified
addresses,
loopback
addresses,
and
anycast
addresses.
Refer
to
the
following
RFCs
for
more
information
about
IPv6
address
formats:
•
RFC
4291,
“IP
Version
6
Addressing
Architecture”
•
RFC
3587,
“IPv6
Global
Unicast
Address
Format”
•
RFC
4007,
“IPv6
Scoped
Address
Architecture”
The
basic
IPv6
protocol
specifies
PDU
options
of
two
classes,
both
of
which
are
supported:
hop
‐
by
‐
hop
options
and
destination
options.
While
new
options
can
be
defined
in
the
future,
the
following
are
currently
supported:
routing
(for
source
routing),
fragment,
router
alert
and
pad.
Jumbograms
are
not
supported.
In
IPv6,
only
source
nodes
fragment.
Path
MTU
discovery
is
therefore
a
requirement.
Flow
labels
are
ignored.
Neighbor
Discovery
is
the
IPv6
replacement
for
ARP.
The
G
‐
Series
supports
neighbor
advertise
and
solicit,
duplicate
address
detection,
and
unreachability
detection.
Router
Advertisement
is
part
of
the
Neighbor
Discovery
process
and
is
required
for
IPv6.
Stateless
autoconfiguration
is
part
of
Router
Advertisement
and
the
G
‐
Series
can
support
both
stateless
and
stateful
* IPv6 Routing License Required *
IPv6 routing must be enabled with a license key. If you have purchased an IPv6 routing license key, and have
enabled routing on the device, you must activate your license as described in “
Activating Licensed Features
”
on page 2-27 in order
to enable the IPv6 routing configuration command set. If you wish to purchase an IPv6
routing license, contact Enterasys Networks Sales.
