CONFIG-INTERFACE mode
ipv6 address ipv6 address/mask
• ipv6 address: x:x:x:x::x
• mask: The prex length is from 0 to 128.
NOTE: IPv6 addresses are normally written as eight groups of four hexadecimal digits. Separate each group by a colon (:).
Omitting zeros is accepted as described in Addressing.
Assigning a Static IPv6 Route
To congure IPv6 static routes, use the ipv6 route command.
NOTE: After you congure a static IPv6 route (the ipv6 route command) and congure the forwarding router’s address
(specied in the ipv6 route command) on a neighbor’s interface, the IPv6 neighbor does not display in the show ipv6
route
command output.
• Set up IPv6 static routes.
CONFIGURATION mode
ipv6 route prefix type {slot/port} forwarding router tag
• prefix: IPv6 route prex
• type {slot/port}: interface type and slot/port
• forwarding router: forwarding router’s address
• tag: route tag
Enter the keyword interface then the type of interface and slot/port information:
• For a Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword GigabitEthernet then the slot/ port information.
• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port information.
• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.
• For a Loopback interface, enter the keyword loopback then the loopback number.
• For a port-channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then the port-channel number.
• For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then the VLAN ID.
• For a Null interface, enter the keyword null then the Null interface number.
Conguring Telnet with IPv6
The Telnet client and server in Dell Networking OS supports IPv6 connections. You can establish a Telnet session directly to the router
using an IPv6 Telnet client, or you can initiate an IPv6 Telnet connection from the router.
NOTE
: Telnet to link local addresses is not supported.
• Enter the IPv6 Address for the device.
EXEC mode or EXEC Privileged mode
telnet ipv6 address
• ipv6 address: x:x:x:x::x
• mask: prex length is from 0 to 128.
