Configuring Ipv6 Addressing; Enabling Ipv6 With An Automatically Configured Link-Local Address - HP 2520-8 Configuration Manual

Configuring IPv6 Addressing

In the default configuration on a VLAN, any one of the following commands
enables IPv6 and creates a link-local address. Thus, while any one of these
methods is configured on a VLAN, IPv6 remains enabled and a link-local
address is present:
ipv6 enable (page 1-3)
ipv6 address autoconfig (page 1-4)
ipv6 address dhcp full [rapid-commit] (page 1-6)
ipv6 address fe80:0:0:0:< device-identifier > link-local (page 1-9)
ipv6 address < prefix:device-identifier > (page 1-10)
Addresses created by any of these methods remain tentative until verified as
unique by Duplicate Address Detection. (Refer to "Duplicate Address Detec-
tion (DAD)" on page 1-14.)
Enabling IPv6 with an Automatically
Configured Link-Local Address
This command enables automatic configuration of a link-local address.
Syntax: [no] ipv6 enable
If IPv6 has not already been enabled on a VLAN by another
IPv6 command option described in this chapter, this command
enables IPv6 on the VLAN and automatically configures the
VLAN's link-local unicast address with a 64-bit EUI-64 inter-
face identifier generated from the VLAN MAC address. (Refer
to "Disabling IPv6 on a VLAN" on page 1-12.).
Note: Only one link-local IPv6 address is allowed on the
VLAN interface. Subsequent static or DHCP configuration
of another link-local address overwrites the existing link-
local address.
