Configuring An Out-Of-Band Management Ipv6 Address - Avaya 5900 Series Quick Start Configuration

Configuring management IP addresses using ACLI
Example
Switch>show ipv6 address
Switch Address: 2005::2/64
Stack Address: 2005::3/64
Switch>show ipv6 default-gateway
Default Gateway: 2005::1
Status: NotActive
Note:
The status of the default gateway is active when the IPv6 address configured is reachable.

Configuring an out-of-band management IPv6 address

Use this procedure to configure the out-of-band management IPv6 address and default gateway for
a switch or stack.
About this task
When you physically connect the Ethernet RJ-45 out-of-band management port for a standalone
switch or stack to your network, and assign an IPv6 address and subnet to the port, you can use
out-of-band management to access the switch or stack using Telnet, SSH, SNMP, HTTP, and
HTTPS.
Note:
In Layer 3 mode, both interfaces of the switch are reachable if the routes are configured. If you
are initiating the connection from the switch interfaces (serial, Telnet, SSH), the out-of-band
management route takes precedence. For example, if you execute a traceroute to a distant
host, the out-of-band route is chosen.
Note:
The out-of-band management IP address must be different than the switch or stack in-band
management IP address and must belong to a different subnet.
Procedure
1. Enter Global Configuration mode:
enable
configure terminal
2. To activate the IPv6 interface on the switch, enter the following command at the command
prompt:
ipv6 mgmt interface
3. To configure a stand alone switch out-of-band management IPv6 address, enter the
following command at the command prompt:
