Configuring Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces for IPv6 with the SRC CLI

You can configure the Gigabit Ethernet interfaces to use IPv4 or IPv6 to allow remote access to the C-series Controller. You can specify an IP address with mask or a broadcast address with mask for an interface.

Use the following configuration statement to configure Gigabit Ethernet interfaces to use IPv6 at the [edit] hierarchy level:

interfaces name unit unit-number family inet6 address address; 

To configure a Gigabit Ethernet interface to use IPv6:

1. From configuration mode, access the configuration statement that configures the interface.

[edit]

user@host# edit interfaces name unit unit-number

where unit-number is a number that you can assign for a logical interface identifier.

For example:

[edit]

user@host# edit interfaces eth0

2. Specify the unit, family, and IP address for the interface.

[edit interfaces eth0]

user@host# set unit number family inet6 address address

For example:

[edit interfaces eth0]

user@host# set unit 0 family inet6 address 2001:DB8:10AB:CD30::1/64 

3. Verify the interface configuration.

[edit interfaces eth0]

user@host# show

unit 0 {

  family { 

    inet6 { 

      address 10AB:0:0:CD30::/20;

    }

  }

}
