Configuring An Ipv6 Link-Local Address; Manual Configuration - HP 830 Series Configuration Manual

Step
3. Configure the interface to
generate an EUI-64 IPv6
address.

Manual configuration

To specify an IPv6 address manually for an interface:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure an IPv6 address
manually.
Stateless address autoconfiguration
To configure an interface to generate an IPv6 address by using stateless address autoconfiguration:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure an IPv6 address to
be generated through
stateless address
autoconfiguration.

Configuring an IPv6 link-local address

You can configure IPv6 link-local addresses in either of the following ways:
Automatic generation—The device automatically generates a link-local address for an interface
•
according to the link-local address prefix (FE80::/10) and the link-layer address of the interface.
Manual assignment—IPv6 link-local addresses can be assigned manually.
•
An interface can have only one link-local address. To avoid link-local address conflicts, use the automatic
generation method.
Manual assignment takes precedence over automatic generation.
If you first use automatic generation and then manual assignment, the manually assigned link-local
•
address overwrites the automatically generated one.
If you first use manual assignment and then automatic generation, the automatically generated
•
link-local address does not take effect, and the link-local address is still the manually assigned one.
