Usage Information
• If two addresses are congured, delete an existing address before conguring a new address.
• If the last manually-congured global IPv6 address is removed using the “no” form of the command, the link-
local IPv6 address is removed automatically.
• IPv6 addresses on a single management interface cannot be members of the same subnet.
• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces across platform must be members of the same subnet.
• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces should not match the virtual IP address and should not
be in the same subnet as the virtual IP.
Example
Dell(conf)# interface gigabitethernet 1/2
Dell(conf-if-gi-1/2)# ipv6 address ?
X:X:X:X::X IPv6 address
Dell(conf-if-gi-1/2)# ipv6 address 2002:1:2::3 ?
<0-128> Prefix length in bits
Dell(conf-if-gi-1/2)# ipv6 address 2002:1:2::3 /96 ?

no ip address
ipv6 address 2002:1:2::3 /96
no shutdown
ipv6 address eui64
Congure IPv6 EUI64 address conguration on the interface.
Syntax
ipv6 address {ipv6-address prefix-length} eui64
To disable IPv6 EUI64 address autoconguration, use the no ipv6 address {ipv6-address prefix-
length} eui64 command.
Parameters
ipv6-address prex-
length
Enter the IPv6 prex in the x:x:x:x::x format then the prex length in the /x format. The
range is from /0 to /128.
