ipv6 address
Use the ipv6 address Interface Configuration mode command to configure an
IPv6 address for an interface. Use the no form of this command To remove
the address from the interface.
Syntax
ipv6 address
ipv6-address/prefix-length [eui-64] [anycast]
no ipv6 address
[ipv6-address/prefix-length] [eui-64]
Parameters
•
ipv6-address
—Specifies the IPv6 network assigned to the interface. This
argument must be in the form documented in RFC 2373 where the
address is specified in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons.
•
prefix-length
—Specifies the length of the IPv6 prefix. A decimal value
that indicates how many of the high-order contiguous bits of the address
comprise the prefix (the network portion of the address). A slash mark (/)
must precede the decimal.
•
eui-64
—(Optional) Builds an interface ID in the low order 64 bits of the
IPv6 address based on the interface MAC address.
•
anycast
—(Optional) Indicates that this address is an anycast address.
•
prefix-length
—3–128 (64 when the
eui-64
parameter is used.
Default Configuration
No IP address is defined for the interface.
Command Mode
Interface configuration (Ethernet, VLAN, Port-channel) mode. It cannot be
configured for a range of interfaces (range context).
User Guidelines
If the value specified for the /prefix-length argument is greater than 64 bits,
the prefix bits have precedence over the interface ID.
