2. Convert each MAC address to a modied EUI-64 format, and then into the nal IPv6 address for the interfaces by performing
the following steps:
a) Remove any punctuation from the MAC.
609c9f46e206
b) Insert
fe after the rst 6 characters.
609c9ffffe46e206
c) Using a calculator application in HEX Mode on a PC, do a Bitwise OR operation of the modied MAC with
0200000000000000.
629c9ffffe46e206
d) Convert the result to IPv6 format by inserting colons after every 4 characters from the right hand side.
629c:9fff:fe46:e206
e) Prepare the IPv6 network information for use. This example uses a sample network of 2001:DB8::/32 provided by the
Admin.
• Normalize the address to a fully expanded format.
2001:0DB8:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000/32
• Remove the cider notation.
2001:0DB8:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000
• Remove the host portion of the address based on a /64 netmask.
2001:0DB8:0000:0000:
• Contract the remaining portion of the address of any leading zeros.
2001:DB8::
f) Combine the IPv6 network
prex from step 2e and the result of step 2d to make the IPv6 address.
2001:DB8::629c:9fff:fe46:e206/32
g) Repeat steps 2a to 2f for each MAC address.
3. Apply the addresses to the appropriate interfaces and congure the default route using the router address provided by the
network administrator.
For more information on conguring management addresses, refer to Extreme SLX-OS Management Guide .
Establishing an Ethernet connection
After using a serial connection to
congure the IP addresses for the device, you can connect the active management module to the local
area network (LAN).
NOTE
Connecting interface modules to a private network or VLAN is recommended.
