Usage Infomation
• SAA can configure up to two addresses. If any preferred prefix or valid timers time out, the corresponding
address are deprecated or removed. If an address is removed due to a time-out, an address from the current
unused prefix is used to create a new address. If there are no remaining prefixes, the software waits to receive
a new prefix from the RA.
• If auto-configuration is enabled, all IPv6 addresses on that management interface are auto-configured. Manual
and auto-configurations are not supported on a single management interface.
• Removing auto-configuration removes all auto-configured IPv6 addresses and the link-local IPv6 address from
that management interface.
• IPv6 addresses on a single management interface cannot be members of the same subnet.
• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces across a platform must be members of the same
subnet.
• 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.
ipv6 address
Configure an IPv6 address to an interface.
Syntax
ipv6 address {ipv6-address prefix-length}
To remove the IPv6 address, use the no ipv6 address {ipv6-address prefix-length} command.
Parameters

prefix-length
Enter the IPv6 address 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.
