3.
Type “exit” to return to the global configuration mode prompt. Press <Enter>.
4.
To set the IP address of the default gateway for the network to which the switch
belongs, type “ip default-gateway
gateway ,” where “gateway” is the IP address
of the default gateway. Press <Enter>.
Console(config)#interface vlan 1
Console(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.5 255.255.255.0
Console(config-if)#exit
Console(config)#ip default-gateway 192.168.1.254
Assigning an IPv6 Address
This section describes how to configure a “link local” address for connectivity
within the local subnet only, and also how to configure a “global unicast” address,
including a network prefix for use on a multi-segment network and the host
portion of the address.
An IPv6 prefix or address must be formatted according to RFC 2373 “IPv6
Addressing Architecture,” using 8 colon-separated 16-bit hexadecimal values. One
double colon may be used to indicate the appropriate number of zeros required to
fill the undefined fields. For detailed information on the other ways to assign IPv6
addresses, see
“IPv6 Interface” on page 548 .
Link Local Address — All link-local addresses must be configured with a prefix in
the range of FE80~FEBF. Remember that this address type makes the switch
accessible over IPv6 for all devices attached to the same local subnet only. Also, if
the switch detects that the address you configured conflicts with that in use by
another device on the subnet, it will stop using the address in question, and
automatically generate a link local address that does not conflict with any other
devices on the local subnet.
To configure an IPv6 link local address for the switch, complete the following steps:
1.
From the Global Configuration mode prompt, type “interface vlan 1” to access
the interface-configuration mode. Press <Enter>.
2.
Type “ipv6 address” followed by up to 8 colon-separated 16-bit hexadecimal
values for the
ipv6-address similar to that shown in the example, followed by
the “link-local” command parameter. Then press <Enter>.
Console(config)#interface vlan 1
Console(config-if)#ipv6 address FE80::260:3EFF:FE11:6700 link-local
Console(config-if)#ipv6 enable
Console(config-if)#end
Console#show ipv6 interface
VLAN 1 is up
IPv6 is enabled
Link-Local Address:
FE80::260:3EFF:FE11:6700/64
