Service Manual

• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces should not match the virtual IP address and should not
be in the same subnet as the virtual IP.
NOTE: Do not use the /128 prefix length on physical or port channel interfaces. You can use the /128
prefix length on loopback interfaces.
Example
Dell(conf)#interface tengigabitethernet x/x
Dell(conf-if-te-x/x)#ipv6 address ?
X:X:X:X::X IPv6 address
Dell(conf-if-te-x/x)#ipv6 address 2002:1:2::3 ?
<0-128> Prefix length in bits
Dell(conf-if-te-x/x)#ipv6 address 2002:1:2::3 /96 ?
Dell(conf-if-te-x/x)#ipv6 address 2002:1:2::3 /96
Dell(conf-if-te-x/x)#show config
ipv6 address eui64
Configure IPv6 EUI64 address configuration on the interface.
Syntax
ipv6 address {ipv6-address prefix-length} eui64
To disable IPv6 EUI64 address autoconfiguration, use the no ipv6 address {ipv6-address prefix-
length} eui64 command.
Parameters
ipv6-address
prefix-length
Enter the IPv6 prefix in the x:x:x:x::x format then the prefix length in the /x format. The
range is from /0 to /128.
NOTE: The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros.
Defaults none

Command History
Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
9.2(0.0) Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage Information This command allows you to create an EUI64 address based on the specified prefix and MAC address only.
Prefixes may be configured on the interface using the ipv6 nd prefix command without creating an EUI64
address.
Example
Dell(conf)#int ten 0/4
Dell(conf-if-te-0/4)#ipv6 address 200:1::/64 eui64
Dell(conf)#int ten 0/6
Dell(conf-if-te-0/6)#ipv6 address 801:10::/64 eui64
ipv6 control-plane icmp error-rate-limit
Configure the maximum number of ICMP error packets per second that can be sent per second.
Syntax
ipv6 control-plane icmp error-rate-limit {1-200}
