Procedure
Step 1
Enable IPv6 packet forwarding on Router A and Router B.
# Configure Router A
<Huawei>
system-view
[Huawei]
sysname RouterA
[RouterA]
ipv6
# Configure Router B
<Huawei>
system-view
[Huawei]
sysname RouterB
[RouterB]
ipv6
Step 2
Configure IPv6 global unicast addresses for the interfaces.
# Configure Router A.
[RouterA]
interface ethernet 1/0/0
[RouterA-Ethernet1/0/0]
ipv6 enable
[RouterA-Ethernet1/0/0]
ipv6 address 3001::1/64
[RouterA-Ethernet1/0/0]
quit
# Configure Router B.
[RouterB]
interface ethernet 1/0/0
[RouterB-Ethernet1/0/0]
ipv6 enable
[RouterB-Ethernet1/0/0]
ipv6 address 3001::2/64
[RouterB-Ethernet1/0/0]
quit
Step 3
Verify the configuration.
If the configuration succeeds, you can view the configured IPv6 global unicast addresses and
status of the interface and the IPv6 protocol are both Up.
# Display interface information of Router A.
[RouterA]
display ipv6 interface ethernet 1/0/0
Ethernet1/0/0 current state :
UP
IPv6 protocol current state :
UP
IPv6 is enabled, link-local address is FE80::2E0:FCFF:FE01:E3
Global unicast address(es):
3001::1, subnet is 3001::/64
Joined group address(es):
FF02::1:FF00:1
FF02::2
FF02::1
FF02::1:FF01:E3
MTU is 1500 bytes
ND DAD is enabled, number of DAD attempts: 1
ND reachable time is 30000 milliseconds
ND retransmit interval is 1000 milliseconds
Hosts use stateless autoconfig for addresses
# Display interface information of Router B.
[RouterB]
display ipv6 interface ethernet 1/0/0
Ethernet1/0/0 current state :
UP
IPv6 protocol current state :
UP
IPv6 is enabled, link-local address is FE80::A19:A6FF:FE9B:6D3B
Global unicast address(es):
3001::2, subnet is 3001::/64
Joined group address(es):
FF02::1:FF00:2
FF02::2
FF02::1
