Configuring IPv6 Routing

Configuring IPv6 Interface Settings

Beginning in Privileged EXEC mode, use the following commands to

configure IPv6 settings for VLAN, tunnel, or loopback interfaces.

Command

Purpose

configure

Enter Global Configuration mode.

interface {vlan |

tunnel | loopback}

interface-id

Enter Interface Configuration mode for the specified VLAN,

tunnel, or loopback interface.

ipv6 address

{autoconfig | dhcp |

prefix/prefix-length

[eui64]}

Configure the IPv6 address and prefix length. Setting an

IPv6 address enables IPv6 on the interface. You can also use

the ipv6 enable command to enable IPv6 on the interface

without setting an address.
Link-local, multicast, IPv4-compatible, and IPv4-mapped

addresses are not allowed to be configured.
Include the eui64 keyword to have the system add the 64-bit

interface ID to the address. You must use a prefix length of

64 in this case.
For VLAN interfaces, use the dhcp keyword to enable the

DHCPv6 client and obtain an IP address form a network

DHCPv6 server or assign a static IP address.

ipv6 nd prefix
