Dual IPv4 and IPv6 Protocol Stacks

You must use the dual IPv4 and IPv6 template to allocate hardware memory usage to both IPv4 and IPv6
protocols.

Figure 36-1
Use the dual IPv4 and IPv6 switch database management (SDM) template to enable IPv6 routing dual
stack environments (supporting both IPv4 and IPv6). For more information about the dual IPv4 and IPv6
SDM template, see

If you try to configure IPv6 without first selecting a dual IPv4 and IPv6 template, a warning message
appears.
In IPv4-only environments, the switch routes IPv4 packets and applies IPv4 QoS and ACLs in
hardware. IPv6 packets are not supported.
In dual IPv4 and IPv6 environments, the switch routes both IPv4 and IPv6 packets and applies IPv4
QoS in hardware.
IPv6 QoS is not supported.
