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 5-29.
Link Local Address — All link-local addresses must be configured with a
prefix of FE80. 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)#end
