Defining IPv6 Addresses
To assign an IPv6 address to an IPv6 Interface:
Click Administration > Management Interface > IPv6 Addresses
To filter the table, select an interface name, and click Go. The interface appears in
the IPv6 Address Table.
Click Add.
Enter values for the fields.
•
IPv6 Interface—Displays the interface on which the IPv6 address is to be
defined. If an * is displayed, this means that the IPv6 interface is not enabled
but has been configured.
•
IPv6 Address Type—Select the type of the IPv6 address to add.
-
Link Local—An IPv6 address that uniquely identifies hosts on a single
network link. A link local address has a prefix of FE80, is not routable, and
can be used for communication only on the local network. Only one link
local address is supported. If a link local address exists on the interface,
this entry replaces the address in the configuration.
-
Global—An IPv6 address that is a global Unicast IPV6 type that is visible
and reachable from other networks.
•
IPv6 Address—In Layer 2, the device supports one IPv6 interface. In
addition to the default link local and Multicast addresses, the device also
automatically adds global addresses to the interface based on the router
advertisements it receives. The device supports a maximum of 128
addresses at the interface. Each address must be a valid IPv6 address that
is specified in hexadecimal format by using 16-bit values separated by
colons.Prefix Length—The length of the Global IPv6 prefix is a value from
0-128 indicating the number of the high-order contiguous bits of the address
comprise the prefix (the network portion of the address).
•
EUI-64—Select to use the EUI-64 parameter to identify the interface ID
portion of the Global IPv6 address by using the EUI-64 format based on a
device MAC address.
Click Apply. The Running Configuration file is updated.
