Table of Contents

You can configure up to two IPv6 addresses on management interfaces, allowing required default router

support on the management port that is acting as host, per RFC 4861. Data ports support more than two

IPv6 addresses.

When you configure IPv6 addresses on multiple interfaces (the ipv6 address command) and verify the

configuration (the show ipv6 interfaces command), the same link local (fe80) address is displayed

for each IPv6 interface.

Enter the IPv6 Address for the device.

CONFIG-INTERFACE mode

ipv6 address ipv6 address/mask

– ipv6 address: x:x:x:x::x

– mask: The prefix length is from 0 to 128

NOTE: IPv6 addresses are normally written as eight groups of four hexadecimal digits. Separate

each group by a colon (:). Omitting zeros is accepted as described in Addressing.

Assigning a Static IPv6 Route

To configure IPv6 static routes, use the ipv6 route command.

NOTE: After you configure a static IPv6 route (the ipv6 route command) and configure the

forwarding router's address (specified in the ipv6 route command) on a neighbor's interface, the

IPv6 neighbor does not display in the show ipv6 route command output.

Set up IPv6 static routes.

CONFIGURATION mode

ipv6 route [vrf vrf-name] prefix type {slot/port[/subport]} forwarding router

– vrf vrf-name:(OPTIONAL) name of the VRF.

– prefix: IPv6 route prefix

– type {slot/port[/subport]}: interface type and slot/port[/subport]

– forwarding router: forwarding router's address

– tag: route tag

Enter the keyword interface then the type of interface and slot/port information:

– For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port/

subport information.

– For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.

– For a Loopback interface, enter the keyword loopback then a number from 0 to 16383.

– For a port channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.

– For a Null interface, enter the keyword null then the Null interface number.

– For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094.
