Assigning An Ipv6 Address To An Interface; Assigning A Static Ipv6 Route - Dell S6100 Configuration Manual

The total number of groups is 4.

Assigning an IPv6 Address to an Interface

Essentially, IPv6 is enabled in Dell Networking OS simply by assigning IPv6 addresses to individual router interfaces. You can use IPv6 and
IPv4 together on a system, but be sure to differentiate that usage carefully. To assign an IPv6 address to an interface, use the ipv6
address command.
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 interface-type stack/slot/port [/subport] forwarding router
tag
• vrf vrf-name:(OPTIONAL) name of the VRF.
• prefix: IPv6 route prefix
• stack/slot/port [/subport]: interface type and stack/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 stack/slot/port/subport information.
• For a 25-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword twentyFiveGigE then the stack/slot/port/subport information.
• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the stack/slot/port[/subport] information.
• For a 50-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fiftyGigE then the stack/slot/port/subport information.
• For a 100-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword hundredGigE then the stack/slot/port information.
• For a Loopback interface, enter the keyword loopback then a number from 0 to 16383.
