Interface Configuration Commands
ipv6 address
This command configures a global IPv6 address on an interface, including VLAN, tunnel, and
loopback interfaces, and enables IPv6 processing on the interface.
Syntax
ipv6 address {ipv6-addr/prefix-length | ipv6-prefix/prefix-length eui64}
no ipv6 address [ipv6-addr/prefix-length | ipv6-prefix/prefix-length eui64]
Parameters
Defaults
No IPv6 addresses are defined for any interface.
Mode
Router interface configuration: C3(su)->router(Config-if(Vlan 1))#
Usage
Use this command to manually configure a global IPv6 address on an interface. You can enter the
complete 128-bit address and prefix, or use the eui64 parameter to configure a global IPv6 address
using an EUI-64 identifier in the low order 64 bits of the address. When using the eui64 parameter,
you specify only the network prefix and length, and the Enterasys C3 generates the low order 64
bits.
The hexadecimal letters in the IPv6 addresses are not case-sensitive.

ipv6-addr The IPv6 address to be configured on the interface.
This parameter must be in the form documented in RFC 4291, with the
address specified in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons.
prefix-length The length of the IPv6 prefix for this address. The value of prefix-length
is a decimal number indicating the number of high-order contiguous
bits of the address that comprise the network portion of the address.
If the eui64 parameter is used, this value must be 64 bits.
ipv6-prefix The IPv6 prefix to be configured on the interface.
This parameter must be in the form documented in RFC 4291, with the
address specified in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons.
eui64 Configures an IPv6 address for an interface using an EUI-64 interface ID
in the low order 64 bits of the address and enables IPv6 processing on
the interface.
