IPv6 Addressing Configuration

Configuring a Static IPv6 Address on a VLAN

DHCPv6 and statically configured global unicast addresses are mutually
exclusive on a given VLAN. That is, configuring DHCPv6 on a VLAN erases
any static global unicast addresses previously configured on that VLAN,
and the reverse. (A statically configured link-local address will not be
affected by configuring DHCPv6 on the VLAN.)

For the same subnet on the switch, a DHCPv6 global unicast address
assignment takes precedence over an autoconfigured address assign­
ment, regardless of which address type was the first to be configured. If
DHCPv6 is subsequently removed from the configuration, then an auto-
configured address assignment will replace it after the next router adver­
tisement is received on the VLAN. DHCPv6 and autoconfigured addresses
co-exist on the same VLAN if they belong to different subnets.

For related information refer to:

RFC 3315: “Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6)”

RFC 3633: “IPv6 Prefix Options for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) version 6”

RFC 3736: “Stateless Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Service for IPv6”

Configuring a Static IPv6 Address on a
VLAN

This option enables configuring of unique, static unicast IPv6 addresses for
global and link-local applications, including:

link-local unicast (including EUI and non-EUI device identifiers)

global unicast (and unique local unicast)
