Address
To
configure

an

IPv6

peer

global

address,

enter

a

c

omplete

IPv6

address

with

a

pr

efix

of
2000::/3
to

3fff::/3.

For

example,

enter

2001:DB8:1::0.
Check
the

EUI-64

box

to

specify

that

the

low

order

64

bits

are

automatically

generated

in

the
IEEE
64-

bit

Extended

Identifier

(EUI-64)

format

specified

i

n

RFC

2373.

To

use
EUI-64,
the

Prefix

Length

field

must

be

less

than

or


equal

to

64

a

nd

the

hos

t

segment

must

be
all
zeros.
Note
The
IPv6
peer
global

address

must

be

unique
across
multiple

contexts

on

a

shared
VLAN.
Prefix
Length
Enter
the

prefix

for

all

global

addresses

to

specify

how

many

of

the

most

bits
(MSBs)
are

used

for

the

Enter

an

integer

from

1

to

128.

If

you

use

the
optional
EUI-64

A
unique

local

address

is

an

optional

IPv6

unicast

address

that

is

used

for

local

communication
within
an

organization

and

it

is

similar

to

a

private

IPv4

address

(for

example,

10.10.2.1).
Unique
local

addresses

have

a

global

scope,

but

they

are

not

routable

on

the

internet,

and

they
are
assigned

by

a

central

authority.

All

unique

local

addresses

have

a

predefined

prefix

of
FC00::/7.
You

can

configure

only

one

IPv6

unique

local

address

on

an

interface.
IPv6

In

the
