Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Enable IPv6.
ipv6
By default, IPv6 is disabled.
3.
Create a tunnel interface
and enter tunnel interface
view.
interface tunnel number
By default, there is no tunnel
interface on the switch.
4.
Configure an IPv6 address
for the tunnel interface.
•
Configure an IPv6 global unicast
address or a site-local address:
{
ipv6 address { ipv6-address
prefix-length |
ipv6-address/prefix-length }
{
ipv6 address
ipv6-address/prefix-length
eui-64
•
Configure an IPv6 link-local
address:
{
ipv6 address auto link-local
{
ipv6 address ipv6-address
link-local
IPv6 link-local address
configuration is optional.
By default:
•
No IPv6 global unicast address
or site-local address is
configured for the tunnel
interface.
•
A link-local address will
automatically be generated
when an IPv6 global unicast or
site-local address is configured
for the interface.
5.
Specify the automatic
IPv4-compatible IPv6
tunnel mode.
tunnel-protocol ipv6-ipv4 auto-tunnel
By default, the tunnel is a GRE over
IPv4 tunnel.
The same tunnel mode should be
configured at both ends of the
tunnel. Otherwise, packet delivery
will fail.
6.
Configure a source
address or interface for the
tunnel.
source { ip-address | interface-type
interface-number }
By default, no source address or
interface is configured for the
tunnel.
7.
Configure the IPv6 MTU
on the tunnel interface.
ipv6 mtu mtu-size
Optional.
By default, the IPv6 MTU is 1480
bytes.
Configuration example
IMPORTANT:
By default, Ethernet, VLAN, and aggregate interfaces are down. To configure such an interface, bring the
interface up by executing the undo shutdown command.
Network requirements
As shown in
, two IPv6 networks are connected to an IPv4 network through dual-stack switches
Switch A and Switch B. Configure an automatic IPv4-compatible IPv6 tunnel between Switch A and
Switch B to make the two IPv6 networks reachable to each other.
