Configuring IPv6 Unicast Routing
Configuring IPv6
DETAILED STEPS
To remove an IPv6 address from an interface, use the no ipv6 address ipv6-prefix/prefix length eui-64 or no ipv6
address ipv6-address link-local interface configuration command. To remove all manually configured IPv6 addresses
from an interface, use the no ipv6 address interface configuration command without arguments. To disable IPv6
processing on an interface that has not been explicitly configured with an IPv6 address, use the no ipv6 enable interface
configuration command. To globally disable IPv6 routing, use the no ipv6 unicast-routing global configuration
command.
Command Purpose
1. configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
2. sdm prefer dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 {default |
routing | vlan}
Select an SDM template that supports IPv4 and IPv6.
 default—Set the switch to the default template to
balance system resources.
 routing—Set the switch to the routing template to
support IPv4 and IPv6 routing, including IPv4
policy-based routing.
 vlan—Maximize VLAN configuration on the switch
with no routing supported in hardware.
3. end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
4. reload Reload the operating system.
5. configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
6. interface interface-id Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the
Layer 3 interface to configure. The interface can be a
physical interface, a switch virtual interface (SVI), or a
Layer 3 EtherChannel.
7. no switchport Remove the interface from Layer 2 configuration mode
(if it is a physical interface).
8. ipv6 address ipv6-prefix/prefix length
eui-64
or
ipv6 address ipv6-address link-local
or
ipv6 enable
Specify a global IPv6 address with an extended unique
identifier (EUI) in the low-order 64 bits of the IPv6
address. Specify only the network prefix; the last 64 bits
are automatically computed from the switch MAC
address. This enables IPv6 processing on the interface.
Specify a link-local address on the interface to be used
instead of the link-local address that is automatically
configured when IPv6 is enabled on the interface. This
command enables IPv6 processing on the interface.
Automatically configure an IPv6 link-local address on
the interface, and enable the interface for IPv6
processing. The link-local address can only be used to
communicate with nodes on the same link.
9. exit Return to global configuration mode.
10. ip routing Enable IP routing on the switch.
11. ipv6 unicast-routing Enable forwarding of IPv6 unicast data packets.
12. end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
13. show ipv6 interface interface-id Verify your entries.
14. copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
