Command Reference Guide
ipv6 address <ipv6 prefix/prefix-length> eui-64
Use the ipv6 address eui-64 command to assign a unicast Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address and
enable IPv6 processing on the interface. Use the no form of this command to remove the IPv6 address
from the interface.
Syntax Description
<ipv6 prefix/prefix-length>
eui-64
Default Values
By default, no IPv6 address is configured on the interface and IPv6 processing is not enabled on the
interface.
Command History
Release 18.1
Functional Notes
The IPv6 unicast address can be a global unicast address or a unique local address, but it cannot be a
link-local IPv6 address (FE80::). Link-local addresses are created on the interface using the command
ipv6 address <ipv6 link-local address> link-local on page
The address created by this command is an EUI-64 unicast address. For this type of address, the EUI-64
interface ID is automatically placed in the IPv6 address. Any manually configured bits beyond the
address's prefix length are set to 0; however, any manually configured bits within the prefix length that
extend into the lower 64 bits take precedence over the Interface ID bits.
Using the no form of this command with a specified IPv6 address removes only that IPv6 address from the
interface. Using the no form of this command without a specified IPv6 address removes all manually
configured IPv6 addresses from the interface.
Usage Examples
The following example adds a unicast IPv6 address with an EUI-64 Interface ID to the interface and
enables IPv6 processing on the interface:
(config)#interface ethernet 0/1
(config-eth 0/1)#ipv6 address 2001:DB8:3F::/48 eui-64
60000CRG0-35E
Specifies the IPv6 prefix. IPv6 prefixes should be expressed in colon
hexadecimal format (X:X::X/<Z>). For example, 2001:DB8:3F::/64. The
prefix length (<Z>) is an integer with a value between 0 and 128.
Specifies that the IPv6 address is constructed using the specified prefix in
the high-order bits and followed by the EUI-64 Interface ID in the lower
64 bits.
