Step 4
ipv6 enable
Enable the IPv6 feature on the management interface.
Step 5
Configure the IPv6 link-local address for the management interface:
Manually configure the ipv6 link-local address for the management interface:
ipv6 address
ipv6-addr
link-local
ipv6-addr
:
Specify the link-local address of the interface. It should be a standardized IPv6
address with the prefix fe80::/10, otherwise this command will be invalid.
Automatically configure the ipv6 link-local address for the management interface:
ipv6 address autoconfig
Step 6
Configure the IPv6 global address for the management interface:
Automatically configure the interface’s global IPv6 address via RA message:
ipv6 address ra
Configure the interface’s global IPv6 address according to the address prefix and other
configuration parameters from its received RA (Router Advertisement) message.
Automatically configure the interface’s global IPv6 address via DHCPv6 server:
ipv6 address dhcp
Enable the DHCPv6 Client function. When this function is enabled, the Layer 3 interface will
try to obtain the IPv6 address from DHCPv6 server.
Manually configure the interface’s global IPv6 address:
ipv6 address
ipv6-addr
ipv6-addr:
The Global IPv6 address with network prefix, for example 3ffe::1/64.
ipv6 address
ipv6-addr
eui-64
Specify a global IPv6 address with an extended unique identifier (EUI) in the low-order 64
bits of the IPv6 address. Specify only the network prefix; the last 64 bits are automatically
computed from the switch MAC address. This enables IPv6 processing on the interface.
Manually configure the IPv6 gateway address:
ipv6 gateway
ipv6-addr
Specify an IPv6 gateway address manually, for example 2001::1.
Step 7
show ipv6 interface
Verify the configured ipv6 information of the interface.
Step 8
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 9
copy running-config startup-config
Save the settings in the configuration file.
The following example shows how to enable the IPv6 function and configure the IPv6
parameters of the management interface:
