Command Usage
◆
All IPv6 addresses must be according to RFC 2373 “IPv6 Addressing
Architecture,” using 8 colon-separated 16-bit hexadecimal values. One double
colon may be used in the address to indicate the appropriate number of zeros
required to fill the undefined fields.
◆
The same link-local address may be used by different interfaces/nodes in
different zones (RFC 4007). Therefore, when specifying a link-local address,
include zone-id information indicating the VLAN identifier after the % delimiter.
For example, FE80::7272%1 identifies VLAN 1 as the interface from which the
ping is sent.
◆
An IPv6 default gateway must be defined if the destination has been assigned
an IPv6 address and is located in a different IP segment.
◆
An IPv6 default gateway can only be successfully set when a network interface
that directly connects to the gateway has been configured on the switch.
Example
The following example defines a default gateway for this device:
Console(config)#ipv6 default-gateway FE80::269:3EF9:FE19:6780
Console(config)#
