Setting the Switch’s IP Address (IP Version 6)
This section describes how to configure an IPv6 interface for management access
over the network, or for creating an interface to multiple subnets. This switch
supports both IPv4 and IPv6, and can be managed through either of these address
types. For information on configuring the switch with an IPv4 address, see “Setting
the Switch’s IP Address (IP Version 4)” on page 477.
Command Usage
◆ IPv6 includes two distinct address types – link-local unicast and global unicast.
A link-local address makes the switch accessible over IPv6 for all devices
attached to the same local subnet. Management traffic using this kind of
address cannot be passed by any router outside of the subnet. A link-local
address is easy to set up, and may be useful for simple networks or basic
troubleshooting tasks. However, to connect to a larger network with multiple
segments, the switch must be configured with a global unicast address. Both
link-local and global unicast address types can either be dynamically assigned
(using the Configure Interface page) or manually configured (using the Add
IPv6 Address page).
◆ An IPv6 global unicast or link-local address can be manually configured (using
the Add IPv6 Address page), or a link-local address can be dynamically
generated (using the Configure Interface page).
