Chapter 39 Configuring IPv6 Unicast Routing
Configuring IPv6
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to assign an IPv6 address to a Layer 3 interface
and enable IPv6 routing:
and enable IPv6 routing:
To remove an IPv6 address from an interface, use the no ipv6 address ipv6-prefix/prefix length eui-64
or no ipv6 address ipv6-address link-local interface configuration command. To remove all manually
configured IPv6 addresses from an interface, use the no ipv6 address interface configuration command
or no ipv6 address ipv6-address link-local interface configuration command. To remove all manually
configured IPv6 addresses from an interface, use the no ipv6 address interface configuration command

Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2

no routing supported in hardware.
no routing supported in hardware.
Step 3
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
reload
Reload the operating system.
Step 5
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode (after the switch has reloaded).
Step 6
interface interface-id
Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the Layer 3
interface to configure. The interface can be a physical interface,
a switch virtual interface (SVI), or a Layer 3 EtherChannel.

Remove the interface from Layer 2 configuration mode (if it is a
physical interface).

or
ipv6 enable
Specify a global IPv6 address with an extended universal
identifier (EUI) in the low-order 64 bits of the IPv6 address.
Specify only the network prefix; the last 64 bits are
automatically computed from the switch MAC address. This
enables IPv6 processing on the interface.

Specify only the network prefix; the last 64 bits are
automatically computed from the switch MAC address. This
enables IPv6 processing on the interface.
Specify a link-local address on the interface to be used instead
of the link-local address that is automatically configured when
IPv6 is enabled on the interface. This command enables IPv6
processing on the interface.
of the link-local address that is automatically configured when
IPv6 is enabled on the interface. This command enables IPv6
processing on the interface.
Automatically configure an IPv6 link-local address on the
interface, and enable the interface for IPv6 processing. The
link-local address can only be used to communicate with nodes
on the same link.

Step 9
exit
Return to global configuration mode.
Step 10
ip routing
Enable IP routing on the switch.
Step 11
ipv6 unicast-routing
Enable forwarding of IPv6 unicast data packets.
