You must enter the ipv6acl allocation as a factor of 2 (2, 4, 6, 8, 10). All other profile allocations can use either even or
odd-numbered ranges.
The default option sets the CAM Profile as follows:
● L3 ACL (ipv4acl): 6
● L2 ACL(l2acl): 5
● IPv6 L3 ACL (ipv6acl): 0
● L3 QoS (ipv4qos): 1
● L2 QoS (l2qos): 1
To have the changes take effect, save the new CAM settings to the startup-config (write-mem or copy run start) then
reload the system for the new settings.
● Allocate space for IPV6 ACLs. Enter the CAM profile name then the allocated amount.
CONFIGURATION mode
cam-acl { ipv6acl }
When not selecting the default option, enter all of the profiles listed and a range for each.
The total space allocated must equal 13.
The ipv6acl range must be a factor of 2.
● Show the current CAM settings.
EXEC mode or EXEC Privilege mode
show cam-acl
● Provides information on FP groups allocated for the egress acl.
CONFIGURATION mode
show cam-acl-egress
Allocate at least one group for L2ACL and IPv4 ACL.
The total number of groups is 4.
Assigning an IPv6 Address to an Interface
Essentially, IPv6 is enabled in Dell Networking OS simply by assigning IPv6 addresses to individual router interfaces.
You can use IPv6 and IPv4 together on a system, but be sure to differentiate that usage carefully. To assign an IPv6 address to
an interface, use the ipv6 address command.
When you configure IPv6 addresses on multiple interfaces (the ipv6 address command) and verify the configuration (the
show ipv6 interfaces command), the same link local (fe80) address is displayed for each IPv6 interface.
● Enter the IPv6 Address for the device.
CONFIG-INTERFACE mode
ipv6 address ipv6 address/mask
○ ipv6 address: x:x:x:x::x
○
mask: The prefix length is from 0 to 128.
NOTE:
IPv6 addresses are normally written as eight groups of four hexadecimal digits. Separate each group by a colon
(:). Omitting zeros is accepted as described in Addressing.
Assigning a Static IPv6 Route
To configure IPv6 static routes, use the ipv6 route command.
NOTE:
After you configure a static IPv6 route (the ipv6 route command) and configure the forwarding router’s address
(specified in the ipv6 route command) on a neighbor’s interface, the IPv6 neighbor does not display in the show ipv6
route command output.
● Set up IPv6 static routes.
