Brocade FastIron Ethernet Switch Layer 3 Routing Configuration Guide - Manual (Page 176)

Syntax: ip address ip-address sub-net-mask [ secondary ]
You must specify the ip-address parameter using 8-bit values in dotted decimal notation.
You can specify the sub-net-mask parameter in either dotted decimal notation or as a decimal value
preceded by a slash mark (/).
The secondary keyword specifies that the configured address is a secondary IPv4 address.
To remove the IPv4 address from the interface, enter the no form of this command.
Syntax: ipv6 address ipv6-prefix /prefix-length [ eui-64 ]
This syntax specifies a global or site-local IPv6 address. For information about configuring a link-local
IPv6 address, refer to
Configuring a link-local IPv6 address on an interface on page 174.
You must specify the ipv6-prefix parameter in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as
documented in RFC 2373.
You must specify the prefix-length parameter as a decimal value. A slash mark (/) must follow the
ipv6-prefix parameter and precede the prefix-length parameter.
The eui-64 keyword configures the global address with an EUI-64 interface ID in the low-order 64 bits.
The interface ID is automatically constructed in IEEE EUI-64 format using the interface’s MAC
address. If you do not specify the eui-64 keyword, you must manually configure the 64-bit interface ID
as well as the 64-bit network prefix. For more information about manually configuring an interface ID,
refer to
Configuring a global or site-local IPv6 address on an interface on page 173.
IPv6 management (IPv6 host support)
You can configure a FastIron X Series, FCX, or ICX switch to serve as an IPv6 host in an IPv6
network. An IPv6 host has IPv6 addresses on its interfaces, but does not have full IPv6 routing
enabled on it.
This section describes the IPv6 host features supported on FastIron X Series devices.
Configuring IPv6 management ACLs
When you enter the ipv6 access-list command, the Brocade device enters the IPv6 Access List
configuration level, where you can access several commands for configuring IPv6 ACL entries. After
configuring the ACL entries, you can apply them to network management access features such as
Telnet, SSH, Web, and SNMP.
NOTE
Unlike IPv4, there is no distinction between standard and extended ACLs in IPv6.
FastIron(config)#ipv6 access-list netw
FastIron(config-ipv6-access-list-netw)#
Syntax: [no] ipv6 access-list ACL-name
The ACL-name variable specifies a name for the IPv6 ACL. An IPv6 ACL name cannot start with a
numeral, for example, 1access. Also, an IPv4 ACL and an IPv6 ACL cannot share the same name.
