Chapter 4: IPv6 Management Address Commands
42
CONFIG IPIF SYSTEM IPV6
Syntax
config ipif system ipv6 ipv6address
ipaddress
subnet_mask
Parameters
ipaddress
Specifies an IPv6 management address for the switch. The address is
entered in this format:
nnnn:nnnn:nnnn:nnnn:nnnn:nnnn:nnnn:nnnn
Where N is a hexadecimal digit from 0 to F. The eight groups of digits
have to be separated by colons. Groups where all four digits are ‘0’
can be omitted. Leading ‘0’s in groups can also be omitted. For
example, the following IPv6 addresses are equivalent:
3710:421e:09a8:0000:0000:0000:00a4:1c50
3710:421e:9a8::a4:1c50
subnet_mask
Specifies the subnet mask of the address. The mask is a decimal
number from 1 to 128 that represents the number of bits, from left to
right, that constitute the network portion of the address. For example,
an address whose network designator consists of the first eight bytes
would have a mask of 64 bits.
Mode
Global Configuration mode
Description
Use this command to manually assign the switch an IPv6 management
address. You must enable IPv6 address processing on the switch before
assigning it an IPv6 address. For instructions, refer to “IPV6 ENABLE” on
page 46.
The switch can have only one IPv6 management address.
Confirmation Command
