Managed Switch CLI Manual, Release 8.0.3
IPv6 Commands 7-2
v1.0, July 2010
IPv6 Management Commands
IPv6 Management commands allow a device to be managed via an IPv6 address in a switch or
IPv4 routing (i.e., independent from the IPv6 Routing package). For Routing/IPv6 builds of
Switch CLI dual IPv4/IPv6 operation over the service port is enabled. Switch CLI has capabilities
such as:
• Static assignment of IPv6 addresses and gateways for the network ports.
• The ability to ping an IPv6 link-local address over the network port.
• Using IPv6 Management commands, you can send SNMP traps and queries via the network
port.
• The user can manage a device via the network port (in addition to a Routing Interface).
