> # Configuring Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces for IPv6 (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;
>            }
>          }
>        }
