Reference Guide

• The status of the IPv6 interface is UP only if the Layer 2 status of the interface is
UP and the interface has a valid IP address.
• The Layer 3 status of an IPv6 interface goes DOWN when its Layer 2 status goes
down (for a Layer 3 VLAN, all VLAN ports must be down) or the IP address is
removed from the routing table.
