Switch Management Commands 2049
User Guidelines
Command execution automatically configures the interface with a link-local
address. This command is not required if an IPv6 global address is configured
on the interface.
Example
The following example enables IPv6 routing on a VLAN which has not been
configured with an explicit IPv6 address.
console(config)#vlan 15
console(config-vlan)#interface vlan 15
console(config-if-vlan15)#ipv6 enable
ipv6 enable (OOB Configuration)
Use the ipv6 enable command in Interface (out-of-band) Configuration
mode to enable IPv6 operation on the out-of-band interface. Prefixes
configured by the ipv6 address command are not configured until the
interface is enabled.
Syntax
ipv6 enable
no ipv6 enable
Default Configuration
By default, IPv6 is not enabled on the out-of-band port.
Command Mode
Interface (out-of-band) Configuration mode
User Guidelines
This command is not necessary if an IPv6 address has been assigned to the
interface. This command is only valid for switches equipped with an out-of-
band interface.
