Command Usage
• Prefixes may contain zero-value fields or end in zeros.
• A general prefix holds a short prefix that indicates the high-order bits used in
the network portion of the address. Longer, more specific, prefixes can be
based on the general prefix to specify any number of subnets. When the
general prefix is changed, all of the more specific prefixes based on this prefix
will also change.
Example
This example assigns a general network prefix of 2009:DB9:2229::/48 to the switch.
