Configuring an IPv6 Interface

Configuring IPv6

OmniSwitch AOS Release 6 Network Configuration Guide

To create an IPv6 interface for a 6to4 tunnel, use the following command:

-> ipv6 interface v6if-6to4 tunnel 6to4

Use the 

 command to verify the interface configuration for the switch. For more infor-

mation about this command, see the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.

 command is used to create a new value for the global ID. A 5-byte global ID 

value can be manually specified or automatically generated:

-> ipv6 address global-id generate

-> ipv6 address global-id 32:57a3:8fed

Once the global ID is generated the 

 command can be used to generate a unique 

local address using the configured global-id. 

The ipv6 interface command is also used to modify existing IPv6 interface parameter values. It is not 
necessary to first remove the interface and then create it again with the new values. The changes specified 
will overwrite existing parameter values. For example, the following command changes the router adver-
tisement (RA) reachable time and the RA retransmit timer values for interface v6if-v200: 

-> ipv6 interface v6if-v200 ra-reachable-time 60000 ra-retrans-time 2000

When an existing interface name is specified with the ipv6 interface command, the command modifies 
specified parameters for that interface. If an unknown interface name is entered along with an existing 
VLAN or tunnel parameter, a new interface is created with the name specified.

To remove an IPv6 interface from the switch configuration, use the no form of the ipv6 interface 
command. Note that it is only necessary to specify the name of the interface, as shown in the following 
example:

-> no ipv6 interface v6if-v200
