IPv6 Management commands allow a device to be managed via an IPv6 address in a switch or IPv4 routing (i.e., independent from the IPv6 Routing package). For Routing/IPv6 builds of dual IPv4/IPv6 operation over the service port is enabled. The product software has capabilities such as:
Use this command to enable IPv6 operation on the service port.
Use this command to disable IPv6 operation on the service port.
Use this command to enable IPv6 operation on the network port.
Use this command to disable IPv6 operation on the network port.
Use the options of this command to manually configure IPv6 global address, enable/disable stateless global address autoconfiguration and to enable/disable dhcpv6 client protocol information on the service port.
NOTE: Multiple IPv6 prefixes can be configured on the service port.
Use the command no service port ipv6 address to remove all configured IPv6 prefixes on the service port interface. Use the command with the address option to remove the manually configured IPv6 global address on the network port interface.
Use the command with the autoconfig option to disable the stateless global address auto-configuration on the service port.
Use the command with the dhcp option to disable the dhcpv6 client protocol on the service port.
Use this command to configure IPv6 gateway (i.e. Default routers) information for the service port.
NOTE: Only a single IPv6 gateway address can be configured for the service port. There may be a combination of IPv6 prefixes and gateways that are explicitly configured and those that are set through auto-address configuration with a connected IPv6 router on their service port interface.
Use this command to remove IPv6 gateways on the service port interface.
Use the options of this command to manually configure IPv6 global address, enable/disable stateless global address auto-configuration and to enable/disable dhcpv6 client protocol information for the network port. Multiple IPv6 addresses can be configured on the network port.
The command no network ipv6 address removes all configured IPv6 prefixes.
Use this command with the address option to remove the manually configured IPv6 global address on the network port interface. Use this command with the auto-config option to disable the stateless global address auto-configuration on the network port. Use this command with the dhcp option disables the dhcpv6 client protocol on the network port.
Use this command to configure IPv6 gateway (i.e. default routers) information for the network port.
Use this command to remove IPv6 gateways on the network port interface.
This command displays NDP cache information for the network port.
The display parameters for above command are:
Use this command to display the neighbor entries cached on the service port.
The display parameters for above command are:
Use this command to determine whether another computer is on the network. Ping provides a synchronous response when initiated from the CLI and Web interfaces. To use the command, configure the switch for network (in-band) connection. The source and target devices must have the ping utility enabled and running on top of TCP/IP. The switch can be pinged from any IP workstation with which the switch is connected through the default VLAN (VLAN 1), as long as there is a physical path between the switch and the workstation. The terminal interface sends three pings to the target station. Use the ip v6-address host name
parameter to ping an interface by using the global IPv6 address of the interface. Use the optional size
keyword to specify the size of the ping packet.
You can utilize the ping or traceroute facilities over the service/network ports when using an IPv6 global address ipv6 global address host name. Any IPv6 global address or gateway assignments to these interfaces will cause IPv6 routes to be installed within the IP stack such that the ping or traceroute request is routed out the service/network port properly. When referencing an IPv6 link-local address, you must also specify the service or network port interface by using the service port
or network
parameter.
Use this command to determine whether another computer is on the network. To use the command, configure the switch for network (in-band) connection. The source and target devices must have the ping utility enabled and running on top of TCP/IP. The switch can be pinged from any IP workstation with which the switch is connected through the default VLAN (VLAN 1), as long as there is a physical path between the switch and the workstation. The terminal interface sends three pings to the target station. Use the interface
keyword to ping an interface by using the link-local address or the global IPv6 address of the interface. You can use a loopback, network port, serviceport, tunnel, or physical interface as the source. Use the optional size keyword to specify the size of the ping packet. The ipv6-address is the link local IPv6 address of the device you want to query.
Use this command to discover the routes that packets actually take when traveling to their destination through the network on a hop-by-hop basis. The ip-v6 address parameter must be a valid IPv6 address. The optional port
parameter is the UDP port used as the destination of packets sent as part of the traceroute. This port should be an unused port on the destination system. The range for port is 0 (zero) to 65535.The default value is 33434.
