Default Setting
No IPv6 addresses are defined
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (VLAN)
Command Usage
• If a link local address has not yet been assigned to this interface, this
command will dynamically generate a global unicast address and a link local
address for the interface. (The link-local address is made with an address
prefix of FE80 and a host portion based the router’s MAC address in modified
EUI-64 format.)
• If a duplicate address is detected, a warning message is sent to the console.
• If the router advertisements have the “other stateful configuration” flag set, the
router will attempt to acquire other non-address configuration information
(such as a default gateway) from a DHCP for IPv6 server.
Example
This example assigns two dynamic global unicast address of
2005::212:CFFF:FE0B:4600 and 3FFE:501:FFFF:100:212:CFFF:FE0B:4600 to the
router.
