User Guidelines

This command enables IPv6 on an interface (if it was disabled) and causes

the switch to perform IPv6 stateless address auto-configuration to discover

prefixes on the link and then to add the eui-64 based addresses to the

interface.
Stateless auto configuration is applied only when IPv6 Forwarding is disabled.
When IPv6 forwarding is changed from disabled to enabled, and stateless

auto configuration is enabled the switch stops stateless auto configuration

and removes all stateless auto configured ipv6 addresses from all interfaces.
When IPv6 forwarding is changed from enabled to disabled and stateless auto

configuration is enabled the switch resumes stateless auto configuration.
Using the no ipv6 address autoconfig command to disable stateless auto

configuration and to remove all stateless auto configured IPv6 addresses from

an interface.
