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

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
"Setting the Switch’s IP Address
(IP Version 6)" on page 659
.
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%1/64
Global unicast address(es):
(None)
Joined group address(es):
ff02::1:ff11:6700
