NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual Syntax Description vlan_name ipaddress ipNetmask ipv6-link-local eui64 ipv6_address_mask Specifies a VLAN name. Specifies an IPv4 address. Specifies an IPv4 subnet mask in dotted-quad notation (for example, 255.255.255.0). Specifies IPv6 and configures a link-local address generated by combining the standard link-local prefix with the automatically generated interface in the EUI-64 format. Using this option automatically generates an entire IPv6 address; this address is only a link-local, or VLAN-based, IPv6 address, that is, ports on the same segment can communicate using this IP address and do not have to pass through a gateway. Specifies IPv6 and automatically generates the interface ID in the EUI-64 format using the interface's MAC address. Once you enter this parameter, you must add the following variables: . Use this option when you want to enter the 64-bit prefix and use a EUI-64 address for the rest of the IPv6 address. Specify the IPv6 address in the following format: x:x:x:x:x:x:x:x/prefix length, where each x is the hexadecimal value of one of the 8 16-bit pieces of the 128-bit wide address. Default N/A. Usage Guidelines Note: You can also use this command to assign an IP address to a vMAN on any NETGEAR 8800 that supports the vMAN feature. For information on which software licenses and platforms support the vMAN feature, see Appendix A in the NETGEAR 8800 User Manual. The VLAN must already exist before you can assign an IP address: use the create vlan command to create the VLAN (also the vMAN must already exist). Note: See Chapter 19, "IP Unicast Commands," for information on adding secondary IP addresses to VLANs. You can specify IPv6 addresses. See Chapter 20, "IPv6 Unicast Commands," for information on IPv6 addresses. Example The following commands are equivalent; both assign an IPv4 address of 10.12.123.1 to a VLAN named accounting: Chapter 9. VLAN Commands | 433
