IPv6 Configuration Examples
This section provides steps to configure IPv6 on the switch.
IPv6 Example 1
The following example uses IPv6 host mode to autoconfigure an IPv6 address for the interface. By
default, the interface is assigned to VLAN 1.
1. Enable IPv6 host mode on an interface.
2. Configure the IPv6 default gateway.
3. Verify the interface address.
IPv6 Example 2
Use the following example to manually configure IPv6 on an interface.
1. Assign an IPv6 address and prefix length to the interface.
The secondary IPv6 address is compressed, and the prefix length is 32.
RS G8124(config)# interface ip 2
RS G8124(config-ip-if)# ip6host
RS G8124(config-ip-if)# enable
RS G8124(config-ip-if)# exit
RS G8124(config)# ip gateway6 1 address
2001:BA98:7654:BA98:FEDC:1234:ABCD:5412
RS G8124(config)# ip gateway6 1 enable
RS G8124(config)# show interface ip 2
RS G8124(config)# interface ip 3
RS G8124(config-ip-if)# ipv6 address
2001:BA98:7654:BA98:FEDC:1234:ABCD:5214
RS G8124(config-ip-if)# ipv6 prefixlen 64
RS G8124(config-ip-if)# ipv6 seccaddr6 2003::1 32
RS G8124(config-ip-if)# vlan 2
RS G8124(config-ip-if)# enable
RS G8124(config-ip-if)# exit
