8. IPv6 Commands
8.1. Tunnel Interface Commands
The commands in this section describe how to create, delete, and manage tunnel interfaces.Several different
types of tunnels provide functionality to facilitate the transition of IPv4 networks to IPv6 networks. These
tunnels are divided into two classes: configured and automatic. The distinction is that configured tunnels are
explicitly configured with a destination or endpoint of the tunnel. Automatic tunnels, in contrast, infer the
endpoint of the tunnel from the destination address of packets routed into the tunnel. To assign an IP address to
the tunnel interface, please refer to “ip address” command. To assign an IPv6 address to the tunnel interface,
please refer to “ipv6 address” command.
