Chapter 32 IPv6 Support on the Cisco ASR 901 Router

How to Configure IPv6 Support on the Cisco ASR 901 Router

DETAILED STEPS

 

Command or Action

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

enable

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

 

 

Enter your password if prompted.

 

Example:

 

 

Router> enable

 

Step 2

 

 

configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

 

Example:

 

 

Router# configure terminal

 

Step 3

 

 

router isis area-tag

Enables IS-IS for the specified IS-IS routing process, and

 

 

enters router configuration mode.

 

Example:

area-tag—Name for a routing process.

 

Router(config)# router isis area2

 

Step 4

 

 

net network-entity-title

Configures an IS-IS network entity title (NET) for the

 

 

routing process.

 

Example:

network-entity-title—The network-entity-title

 

Router(config-router)# net

argument defines the area addresses for the IS-IS area

 

49.0001.0000.0000.000c.00

and the system ID of the router.

Step 5

 

 

exit

Exits router configuration mode and enters global

 

 

configuration mode.

 

Example:

 

 

Router(config-router)# exit

 

Step 6

 

 

interface type number

Specifies an interface type and number, and places the

 

 

router in interface configuration mode.

 

Example:

 

 

Router(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/0

 

Step 7

 

 

ipv6 address {ipv6-address/prefix-length

Specifies the IPv6 network assigned to the interface and

 

prefix-name sub-bits/prefix-length}

enables IPv6 processing on the interface.

 

Example:

ipv6-address—The IPv6 address to be used.

 

prefix-length—The length of the IPv6 prefix. A decimal

 

Router(config-if)# ipv6 address 2001:DB8::3/64

 

value that indicates how many of the high-order

 

 

 

 

contiguous bits of the address comprise the prefix (the

 

 

network portion of the address). A slash mark must

 

 

precede the decimal value.

 

 

prefix-name—A general prefix, which specifies the

 

 

leading bits of the network to be configured on the

 

 

interface.

 

 

sub-bits—The subprefix bits and host bits of the address

 

 

to be concatenated with the prefixes provided by the

 

 

general prefix specified with the prefix-nameargument.
