IPv6 Management Features
IP Preserve for IPv6

To verify how IP Preserve was implemented in a switch, after the switch
reboots, enter the

show run command. Figure 5-11 shows an example in which

all configurations settings have been copied into the startup-config file except
for the IPv6 address of VLAN 1 (2001:db8::214:c2ff:fe4c:e480) and the default
IPv6 gateway (2001:db8:0:7::5), which were retained.

Note that if a switch received its IPv6 address from a DHCP server, the “ip
address” field under “vlan 1” would display:

dhcp-bootp.

ProCurve(config)# show run

Running configuration:

Because the switch’s IPv6 address and

module 1 type J8702A

default gateway were statically configured

module 2 type J8705A

switch boots up with the IP Preserve startup
