The following is a sample script to configure IPv6 using CLI:
IPv6 Default Gateway
Use the IPv6 Default Gateway pages to configure and view the default IPv6
router addresses. This list contains routers that are candidates to become the
switch default router for non-local traffic. The switch randomly selects a
router from the list. The switch supports one static IPv6 default router.
Dynamic default routers are routers that have sent router advertisements to
the switch IPv6 interface.
When adding or deleting IP addresses, the following events occur:
• When removing an IP interface, all of its default gateway IP addresses are
removed.
• Dynamic IP addresses cannot be removed.
• An alert message is displayed after a user attempts to insert more than one
IP address.
• An alert message is displayed when attempting to insert a non-Link Local
type address.
