ipv6config

The ipv6config command is used to view and set the parameters that specify the IPv6 network configuration of Makito X Series devices.

As shown in the examples that follow, when you enter the ipv6config configure command, the system displays the current IPv6 settings and takes you through a series of prompts enabling you to change these settings. You can either assign a static IPv6 address or use DHCPv6 (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6).

You must reboot for any changes to take effect.
