1-17IPv6 Configuration ExampleIPv6 Unicast Address ConfigurationNetwork requirementsTwo switches are directly connected through two Ethernet ports. The Ethernet ports belong to VLAN 2.Different types of IPv6 addresses are configured for the interface VLAN-interface 2 on each switch toverify the connectivity between the two switches. The IPv6 prefix in the EUI-64 format is 2001::/64, theglobal unicast address of Switch A is 3001::1/64, and the global unicast address of Switch B is3001::2/64.Network diagramFigure 1-5 Network diagram for IPv6 address configurationConfiguration procedure1) Configure Switch A.# Configure an automatically generated link-local address for the interface VLAN-interface 2. system-view[SwitchA] interface Vlan-interface 2[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] ipv6 address auto link-local# Configure an EUI-64 address for the interface VLAN-interface 2.[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] ipv6 address 2001::/64 eui-64# Configure a global unicast address for the interface VLAN-interface 2.[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] ipv6 address 3001::1/642) Configure Switch B.# Configure an automatically generated link-local address for the interface VLAN-interface 2. system-view[SwitchB] interface Vlan-interface 2[SwitchB-Vlan-interface2] ipv6 address auto link-local# Configure an EUI-64 address for the interface VLAN-interface 2.[SwitchB-Vlan-interface2] ipv6 address 2001::/64 eui-64# Configure a global unicast address for the interface VLAN-interface 2.[SwitchB-Vlan-interface2] ipv6 address 3001::2/64Verification# Display the brief IPv6 information of an interface on Switch A.[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] display ipv6 interface vlan-interface 2Vlan-interface2 current state : UPLine protocol current state : UPIPv6 is enabled, link-local address is FE80::20F:E2FF:FE49:8048
