ADDIPV6ADDRESS "ipv6-addr"
specifies the 128-bit IPv6) address to be added, in this format:
x:x:x:x:x:x:x:x
Each x represents the hexadecimal value of a 16-bit piece of the address. An IPv6
address typically consists of a 64-bit prefix followed by a 64-bit interface identifier.
More than one IPv6 addresses can be added to an IPv6-enabled SUBNET.
DELIPV6ADDRESS "ipv6-addr"
deletes the specified IPv6 address to be removed.
ADDIPV6PREFIX "ipv6-prefix"
specifies that the address argument is an IPv6 prefix and that the interface
identifier is to be appended to it to create a 128-bit IPv6 address. More than one
IPv6 prefix can be added to an IPv6-enabled SUBNET.
You can use this attribute to add IPv6 alias addresses; for more information, see
Stateless address autoconfiguration on page 2-18.
DELIPV6PREFIX "ipv6-prefix"
deletes the specified prefix from the SUBNET.
IPV6INTERFACEID "ipv6-id"
overrides the default interface ID, which depends on the underlying link type. The
IPV6INTERFACEID attribute specifies the ipv6-id as the interface ID. If you are
altering the default interface ID, you must also specify IPV6 UP.
For example, if your system has the Ethernet hardware address 08-00-2b-2a-1e-
d3 associated with SUBNET SN1, this command generates the INET6 link-local
address fe80::a00:2bff:fe2a:1ed3 for the SUBNET/interface:
->ALTER SUBNET sn1, FAMILY INET6, IPV6 UP
On the same system, this command generates the INET6 interface ID abcd:1234
for the interface:
->ALTER SUBNET SN1, FAMILY INET6, &
IPV6INTERFACEID "::abcd:1234"
For more information about the IPV6INTERFACEID, see Stateless address
autoconfiguration on page 2-18.
IPV6 UP | DOWN
initializes (UP) or removes (DOWN) IPv6-related data structures and assigns an
IPv6 link-local address to the interface. If this attribute is DOWN, it removes any
