8.9.6 IPv6 Link-Local Address Setup

A link-local address uniquely identifies a device on the local network (the LAN). It is similar to a "private IP
address" in IPv4. You can have the same link-local address on multiple interfaces on a device. A link-
local unicast address has a predefined prefix of fe80::/10.
Use this screen to configure the interface's link-local address and default gateway. Click the link next to
IPv6 Link-Local Address Setup in the IPv6 Configuration screen to display the screen as shown next.

DESCRIPTION
This field displays whether the IPv6 interface is activated or not.
This field displays whether stateless auto-configuration is enabled on the interface.
DESCRIPTION
Select the IPv6 interface you want to configure.
Manually configure a static IPv6 link-local address for the interface.
Set the default gateway IPv6 address for the interface. When an interface cannot find a routing
information for a frame's destination, it forwards the packet to the default gateway.
Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch's run-time memory. The Switch loses these
changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to save
your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
Click Clear to reset the fields to the factory defaults.
This is the interface index number. Click an index number to change the settings.
This is the name of the IPv6 interface you created.
This is the static IPv6 link-local address for the interface.
This is the default gateway IPv6 address for the interface.
