IPv6 Network Configuration
Use the IPv6 Network Configuration screen to configure the IPv6 network interface, which is
the logical interface used for in-band connectivity with the switch through all of the switch’s
front-panel ports. The configuration parameters associated with the switch’s network
interface do not affect the configuration of the front panel ports through which traffic is
switched or routed.
To access the switch over an IPv6 network, you must initially configure the switch with IPv6
info
rmation (IPv6 prefix, prefix length, and default gateway). IPv6 can be configured using
any of the following options:
• IPv6 auto
configuration
• DH
CPv6
When in-band connectivity is established, IPv6 information can be changed using
SNMP-based manage
ment or web-based management
To configure the network information for an IPv6 network:
1. Select System > Manage
ment > IPv6 Network Configuration.
Figure 29. IPv6 Network Configuration
2. Next to Admin Mode, ensure that the Enable radio button is selected.
3. Determin
e how the switch acquires an IPv6 address:
• IPv6 Address
Auto Configuration Mode. When this mode is enabled, the network
interface can acquire an IPv6 address through IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol
(NDP) and through the use of router advertisement messages. When this mode is
disabled, the network interface will not use the native IPv6 address auto configuration
