IPv6 Interface
– 912 –
Default Setting
No IPv6 addresses are defined
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (VLAN)
Command Usage
◆ If a link local address has not yet been assigned to this interface, this command
will dynamically generate a global unicast address (if a global prefix is included
in received router advertisements) and a link local address for the interface.
(The link-local address is made with an address prefix of FE80 and a host
portion based the switch’s MAC address in modified EUI-64 format.)
◆ If a duplicate address is detected, a warning message is sent to the console.
◆ When DHCPv6 is restarted, the switch may attempt to acquire an IP address
prefix through stateful address autoconfiguration. If the router advertisements
have the “other stateful configuration” flag set, the switch may also attempt to
acquire other non-address configuration information (such as a default
gateway) from a DHCPv6 server when DHCPv6 is restarted.
Example
This example assigns a dynamic global unicast address of to the switch.
