ipv6 enable

This command also enables IPv6 processing on the interface and automatically generates a link‐ local address.

You can assign multiple globally reachable addresses to an interface with this command.

Use the no ipv6 address command without any parameters to remove all manually configured IPv6 addresses from the interface.

Example

This example configures an IPv6 address by using the eui64 parameter. Then, the show ipv6 interface is executed to display the configuration. Note that a link‐local address has also automatically been generated.
