Usage Guidelines

•You can assign multiple IPv6 addresses to an IPv6 interface.

•Use the “no” form of the command to delete an address.

•The “eui” form of the command is used to add or remove an IPv6 address for a VLAN or configured tunnel using an EUI-64 interface ID in the low order 64 bits of the address.

•To enable IPv6 routing you must first create a VLAN, then create an IPv6 interface on the VLAN. See Chapter 21, “VLAN Management Commands,” for information on creating VLANs.

•To route IPv6 traffic over and IPv4 network, you must create an IPv6 tunnel using the ipv6 interface tunnel source destination command.
