• Prefix Length—The length of the Global IPv6 prefix is a value from 0-128
indicating the number of the high-order contiguous bits of the address
comprise the prefix (the network portion of the address).

portion of the Global IPv6 address by using the EUI-64 format based on a
device MAC address.
Click Apply. The Running Configuration file is updated.
Defining an IPv6 Default Router List
The IPv6 Default Router List page enables configuring and viewing the default
IPv6 router addresses. This list contains the routers that are candidates to become
the switch default router for non-local traffic (it may be empty). The switch
randomly selects a router from the list. The switch supports one static IPv6 default
router. Dynamic default routers are routers that have sent router advertisements to
the switch IPv6 interface.
When adding or deleting IP addresses, the following events occur:
• When removing an IP interface, all the default router IP addresses are
removed.
• Dynamic IP addresses cannot be removed.
• An alert message is displayed after an attempt is made to insert more than
a single user-defined address.
• An alert message is displayed when attempting to insert a non-link local
type address, meaning 'fe80:'.
To define a default router:
In Layer 2 mode, click Administration > Management Interface > IPv6 Default
Router List.
In Layer 3 mode, click IP Configuration > Management and IP Interface > IPv6
Default Router List.
The IPv6 Default Router List page opens.
This page displays the following fields for each default router:
• Default Router IPv6 Address—Link local IP address of the default router.
