IPv6 Addressing Configuration

Configuring a Static IPv6 Address on a VLAN

■ DHCPv6 and statically configured global unicast or anycast addresses are

mutually exclusive on a given VLAN. That is, configuring DHCPv6 on a

VLAN erases any static global unicast or anycast addresses previously

configured on that VLAN, and the reverse. (A statically configured link-

local address will not be affected by configuring DHCPv6 on the VLAN.)

■ For the same subnet on the switch, a DHCPv6 global unicast address

assignment takes precedence over an autoconfigured address assign-

ment, regardless of which address type was the first to be configured. If

DHCPv6 is subsequently removed from the configuration, then an auto-

configured address assignment will replace it after the next router adver-

tisement is received on the VLAN. DHCPv6 and autoconfigured addresses

co-exist on the same VLAN if they belong to different subnets.

For related information refer to:

■ RFC 3315: “Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6)”

■ RFC 3633: “IPv6 Prefix Options for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

(DHCP) version 6”

■ RFC 3736: “Stateless Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

Service for IPv6”

Configuring a Static IPv6 Address on a

VLAN

This option enables configuring of unique, static unicast and anycast IPv6

addresses for global and link-local applications, including:

■ link-local unicast (including EUI and non-EUI device identifiers)

■ global unicast (and unique local unicast)

■ anycast
