prefix
— Consists of the bits of the address to be configured.
prefix-length
— Designates how many of the high-order contiguous bits of
the address make up the prefix.
eui64
— The optional eui-64 field designates that IPv6 processing on the
interfaces is enabled using an EUI-64 interface ID in the low order 64 bits
of the address. If this option is used, the value of

prefix_length

must be 64
bits.

Example
The following example configures an IPv6 address and enables IPv6
processing.
console(config)#interface vlan 15
console(config-if-vlan15)#ipv6 address 2020:1::1/64

ipv6 enable

Use the ipv6 enable command in Interface Configuration mode to enable
IPv6 routing on an interface (including tunnel and loopback interfaces) that
has not been configured with an explicit IPv6 address. Command execution
automatically configures the interface with a link-local address. The
command is not required if an IPv6 global address is configured on the
interface.
Syntax
